Emergency "pause" feature (pause all sending during national emergencies, etc)

I would love to have an emergency “pause” feature in Late that would pause all sending with one action. Issues can come up where we need to abruptly pause all of our social messages from publishing (for example, when a national emergency occurs, during which we would not want to send the messages we’ve scheduled that feel inappropriate in tone). Without a “pause” feature, it’s a giant hassle to go in and individually unschedule everything we’ve so painstakingly scheduled. With this feature, all scheduled social messages would not send until we figure out how to respond. Once we’ve determined a new game plan, we can then reschedule new and old/paused content and “resume” sending. (My old scheduler has this feature and it saved me several times—it’s used sparingly, but when it’s needed, it’s really needed. I would love for Late to figure out something similar!)

    Maybe disconnecting the account will help, but I’m not sure what will happen if you reconnect it. Will the scheduled posts be activated again?
