Bob Bell pointed out to me ~Q, which according to the doc matches
"messages which have been replied to".  This seems to be intended for
us in <limit> or <tag-pattern>.

Whether intentional or inadvertent, it also seems to work for #2
above...

    send-hook '~Q'  'my_hdr X-Q-Status: this is a reply'
    send-hook '!~Q' 'my_hdr X-Q-Status: this is not a reply'

Thanks Bob!
