The notmuch reply command structured output formats contain the original message, with all the information needed to determine whether the message was signed and/or encrypted. Someone(tm) just needs to write the code to check that in emacs (probably fits in the quoting loop), and insert the appropriate mml tag (or whatever it's called) to tell message mode to encrypt.
