You can use `C-d C-n C-n C-n R' as well.

Maybe the `gnus-mime-part-reply' command will be the one like:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun gnus-mime-part-reply ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((id (get-text-property (point) 'gnus-part)))
    (when id
      (let ((gnus-original-article-buffer
             (nth 1 (assq id gnus-article-mime-handle-alist))))
        (gnus-summary-reply)))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Although I don't feel like very much making `reply', `wide-reply',
`very-wide-reply', `reply-with-original', `reply-broken-reply-to',
`mail-forward', `followup',...
