AFK timeout override

I firmly believe that we should have an AFK timeout override setting for channels and roles. I was listening to music via a bot, and got AFKed because I walked away to make my bed, still listening to music. It ended up clearing the queue. I really do believe having an AFK override setting for channels and roles, would be a great idea, and would be utilized greatly. It should allow us to change the timeout time to something other than the server default. Another last minute idea for it, is to have a user setting on our own account, to set out own AFK timeout time, with a server setting allowing user decision or server/channel default.

If you own a server you can already do this by going to settings and selecting server oveview. It's default is 1 hour, so unless you have a REALLY big bed or the server you were on has changed the time, you were away longer than that.

Yes, I do own a server, and moderate a few others. I am aware that you can adjust the setting for the server, but what I'm suggesting, are override options. An override option for channels, roles, and users. Many people I have talked to, have wished for an override option for various channels. Say I'm in a general voice chat, and I walk away, a ten minute timeout setting is good, but in a music channel where voice is disabled, one hour is good. This is what I'm referring to, channel specific settings.
