Dynamic load slash command list through interactions.

It would be nice if instead of bots having to register their commands through API, they could return their command list dynamically when requested through an interaction, which would give the bot more control of where, when and who is requesting their command list and what commands should be returned, and also allow them to update instantly and without limits their command list.

I think this poses way too many architectual challenges to implement feasibly.

Things like

• Discord has to send out interactions to every single application in the server
• Handling of the 100% will be happening race conditions of different applications responding
• Somehow displaying to the user what is happening
• Loading the slash command list is a blocking operation, you cannot send a message that starts with / until the list has loaded, which is already slow for some
• etc..
