The reason I really want to see this feature is because I always forget
to change my from address depending on the context of my email.  Given
that's my issue, I will also always forget to use a different command to
compose/reply.  In other words, I think the real way to enable this
feature should be via a customization variable.  Either that, or I'll
just modify my custom keybindings to always prompt when I just press the
regular compose/reply keys.

Thanks for work on this feature, Thomas.
