Yes, I'm working on it.
At the moment qmail-reply ignores following senders:
        static char *(junkignore[]) = {
                /* don't reply to bots */
                "-request",
                "daemon",
                "-daemon",
                "uucp",
                "mailer-daemon",
                "mailer",
                /* don't bother admins */
                "postmaster",
                "root",
                /* from vacation(1) */
                "-relay",
                0 } ;

and checks these headers:
Mailing-List:
Precedence:

This is how vacation is working.
Lists should set a Precedence: list header and there will be no reply.
