Improve Reaction Removal UX with Rate Limit Feedback
Currently, despite the "remove all reactions" button, a user may be inclined to instead attempt to quickly delete reactions in the "view reactions" popup. Doing so seems to create a handful of issues in the UX - the deletions don't immediately register, going too fast causes the window to scroll and reload users that were already deleted, and worst of all, its possible that the client caches these requests and repeatedly sends them despite hitting a rate limit, placing unnecessary burden on the Discord API and triggering an account-wide rate limit ban, that, unlike message-spam-based rate limits, is globally scoped (affects more than just reactions).
Lets fix this with some user feedback. Shake the screen and give them a "calm down, you know you can just click here to remove all reactions!" button, to prevent this unintended behavior, unpleasant user experience, and API burden.
