DND needs a silent mode – this is do-not-disturb plus no visual indication of any messaging activity. For example, bolding of incoming chat messages from individuals or groups, and no popup notifications. Turning off silent mode would then restore the display to normal, and show who sent messages. The user will still be able to send and read chat messages if needed while in silent mode. Excluding certain users can be set, so notifications and alerts will work as normal for those individuals.
