What I plan to do for vm-reply is have VM call
vm-set-window-configuration with arguments of vm-reply and
composing-message.  VM will then look for a specific window
configuration for vm-reply and if it doesn't find one then it
will fall back to the general composing message comfiguration.
I'll do something similar for the other reply and outbound mail
commands.
