I wonder whether it would be better to introduce a role quotation instead of blockquote, because one can also quote from another resource inline.

We didn't think so. The q element is not something screen readers would likely want to provide navigation to using the same functionality as a blockquote. Ditto for providing context. Thus the q element is slated for the generic inline role with a TBD attribute. https://github.com/w3c/aria/wiki/Plans-regarding-role-parity
