Need, no, but one could appeal to symmetry. If we can generate the
request and expect others to respond, it seems that we too should have
the ability to optionally meet this expectation.

Having said that, doing so would require maintaining some per-message
state to track whether one had already responded, or perhaps
permanently declined to respond, so as to preclude repeated prompting
each time one views a given message.

Bonus points would go to correlating the incoming responses with the
original outbound message.
