I see.

And how should that hint look like? Will it say "I want this action to 
do a quick reply if you can"?

Either way, a client has to check for it being supported before using 
it. Otherwise with my proposal they will just not connect to the signal 
and never get a reply, or in your case they will get an action 
invocation with an ID they don't expect: "inline-reply::Some Text" 
rather than the "inline-reply" they added.

Given this, I think a dedicated signal is more explicit.
