Add a queue to /shoutout

This has been a great new feature that Twitch has added recently that has helped so many people gain new followers.

One thing that I think its lacking is a queue system. I understand that the shoutout needs to have a cooldown but often times multiple raids come in at the same time and being unable to shout out both people means that one gets the shoutout and we forget to do the other one when the cooldown is up. Even adding a queue system of up to 5 streamers would be extremely helpful in making sure everyone gets the recognition they deserve!

    This would be so helpful. There have been multiple times where I am discussing community events with my viewers and want to shoutout multiple people. I have to remember who to shoutout after the timeout and with ADHD that isn't easy.

    I teach a lot about woodworking on the platform and like to direct my viewers to other woodworkers that have taught me and/or stream in different timezones. I would love to be able to shoutout those people in a queue to make sure that they get some light shed on their channels.

    As a streamer who often has times when no mod is available, being able to queue them up all at once will help the flow of my stream and be less disruptive because i need to hide my keyboard when im arting.

    This might make sense for those with a larger viewing audience. I know I regularly like to give shoutouts on my page so the more the better, in my opinion

    As a mod for multiple channels, I think this would be SUPER helpful especially when multiple raids come in. Not having the ability to queue up multiple shoutouts to ensure those who raid in get recognized and not forgotten is crucial, especially when raids add more good chaos to the stream. Chaos = forgetting important shoutouts if the streamer is momentary mod-less when they get raided/double raided or even triple raided within a short timespan.

    I ageee, a queue would be very nice. even smaller streamers like I, have multiple shoutouts we would like to do.. but have to wait... and as flustered and busy we get in this fast paced enviornment... often many important shoutouts fall through the cracks... no one wants that...

    Currently the /shoutout command only allows for 1 shoutout per minute which is good and understandable. The issue comes when there are many streamers you would like to shoutout and have to remember to /shoutout them later.

    Instead adding a queue so that you can shoutout multiple streamers after each other would be great.

    This is the norm when using moderator chatbots like streamelements
