This does add on to the coding, but here is what I suggest:
Smileys you can copy....
You may copy some text from a post or PM, but you can't quote, because it's a separate page....
I was thinking for the smiley the code could be:

<span style="background: url(smileylink); width: smileywidth; height: smileyheight; {something to make the text invisible}">:smileyreplacetext:</span>

It's not needed but I get frustrated when I can't...
(some of our smileys are for calling images quicker then the [ img ] tag)

I don't really understand personally. It sounds like you're trying to use a feature that it wasn't made for and expect MyBB to correct it.

Can't you just quote a post(hist the reply button), copy the quoted text, and post in the new thread.

I guess you didn't read the thread...

Basically, a user shouldn't have to come up with solutions to a problem like this, it should be easier for them, not MyBB imo.
