Can I send a message using `send_message()` and have it alert the user in this way? I can send a message prefixed with @everyone (e.g. \"@everyone testing 1 2 3\") then it does this, however if I try sending a message with a valid username (\"@SomeValidUsername testing 1 2 3\") it just sends the message without any notification, highlighting, etc. Am I doing something wrong or is this not yet a supported feature?\r\n"}}
