Actually, that specific mechanism does exist.  You do need to be viewing 
via the web interface.

To the right of the "Reply" arrow (itself to the right of every post) is a 
small, downward pointing triangle.  Clicking on this will bring down a menu 
of "More Message Actions".  Among the choices is "Reply to Author"

Note - this works via a compliant browser in a desktop environment. There 
may be anomalies via iOS.

Hope that helps,
