Description

I enjoy using D#+ because it manages rate limits for me.

However, once i ask it to do something, it could be a long time before i see the result come back to me.

Take the following as an example.

private async Task StartFiveMinuteTimer(CancellationToken cancellationToken)
{
  PeriodicTimer timer = new(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5));
  do 
  {  
    using CancellationTokenSource fiveMinuteToken= new CancellationTokenSource(TimeSpan.FromMinutes(5));
    using CancellationTokenSource linkedToked = CancellationTokenSource.CreateLinkedTokenSource(cancellationToken, fiveMinuteToken.Token);
  
    // ommited some other stuff like DB queries and HTTP requests that utilize the above tokens
  
    await discordChannel.ModifyAsync(x =>
    {
        x.Name = name;
    });
  } while (await timer.WaitForNextTickAsync(cancellationToken));
}

Here, its possible that the PeriodicTimer does not tick every 5 minutes if renaming the discordChannel is waiting until it knows it will not hit a rate limit.

Would it be possible for us to somehow say "hey D#+, give up trying to rename that channel", possibly through the use of CancellationToken's or other means.
