Description

I just set up my first Slack-compatible webhook, to integrate with New Relic. I have past experience of rolling my own webhooks, where it's easy to add @all to the message. But there's no way to do that with the Script enabled: false type of webhook. If I can't notify the entire channel when New Relic reports a problem in production it's kind of useless.

Therefore I suggest a toggle in the Incoming webhook admin, to notify all (or not).
