SUMMARY
Feature request: silence notifications from mobile phone for fixed time

It would be useful to have this function available on right click, e.g. silencing for 30 minutes or so... (or configurable time in settings)

Use case: Having Pidgin receiving messages, but also phone nearby computer, therefore displaying notifications about messages are duplicated - first by pidgin, then by KDEConnect. I could silence these notifications for fixed time and not be bothered.

This happens with whatsapp too. The worst thing is that the web version depends on the android connection, so it is not possible to disable the smartphone wi-fi to stop receiving the notifications, this would be a simpler solution. 

Deactivating the notifications permanently for sure is something the user will forget to undo later, which will lead him to lose the notifications he was expecting.

Anyway, this is a very necessary function. Thanks for reporting this @Dan Duris.
