Well - this seems to be an explicit feature:

(defun mew-draft-cite (&optional arg force)
  "Copy and paste a part of message from Message mode with
citation prefix and label.
1. Roughly speaking, it copies the body in Message mode. For example,
   if text/plain is displayed, the entire Message mode is copied.
   If message/rfc822 is displayed, the body without the header is copied.
2. If called with '\\[universal-argument]', the header is also copied if exists.
3. If an Emacs mark exists, the target is the region between the mark and 
   the cursor."

I'm disabling this here locally for now ...
