Users should be force mentioned when it's their turn

When it becomes a user's turn, many people are available during their quiet hours. Have the bot notify them!

Crossing some of the API docs, it looks like messages only force a notification if they're marked as 'urgent' (https://get.slack.help/hc/en-us/articles/214908388-Do-Not-Disturb-and-snooze-settings), but the messaging API doesn't seem to support marking messages as such (https://api.slack.com/methods/chat.postMessage).

A couple possible alternatives:

• Use https://api.slack.com/methods/dnd.info to get when the DND mode ends, and set a reminder for shortly after that it's their turn (using https://api.slack.com/methods/reminders.add). This would require the reminders:write and dnd:read scopes to be added to the bot.
• Force the user out of 'DND' mode prior to posting the message using https://api.slack.com/methods/dnd.endDnd. Would require the dnd:write scope to be added
• Set a timer after the beginning of the turn (for example, 1-2 hours), which would re-post the turn notification. Could get chatty if they user is away for a long time (like over a weekend, or gone for a week). Would not require any scope changes, but risk losing the timer if the bot restarts. Also don't know what issues might occur if there are multiple instances of the bot spun up/running.
• Wire to the 'presence' event (https://api.slack.com/events/presence_change), and when the given user's presence is set to (not away), send them a direct message reminding them it's their turn. Would not require a change in scope, but may result in multiple messages to the user if multiple instances of the bot are running.

So, I can't see any way of marking the announcement as urgent.

Any thoughts on the remaining alternatives?
