I notice that the Quick Reply feature has a few options:
Reply / Reply all / Reply to list / Forward
Add cc / Add bcc
Edit recipient

These are all options that I personally would rarely use and have no place in a minimal interface that has a link to the full interface. However, there _are_ options that I would use (Sign / Encrypt with Enigmail, or Edit "From" field, for instance) that also should not be in a minimal interface, but (for me) are more valid for the minimal interface than the current options available (which were likely chosen as _someone_ finds them useful).

Therefore, I suggest that Conversations either:
1) Remove all options from the Quick Reply feature. Users that need to use the options on a particular email can easily open the full interface.
--or--
2) Add an options page where users can select which options they need shown in the Quick Reply.
