Add Integrations to the Tools column that is not integrated via Segment

Hello,

We are considering to integrate https://github.com/segmentio/consent-manager, but have a question. Does the library has support to add Integrations/Tools that are not integrated via Segment? Let's say we integrate with a 3rd party service that uses cookies, but Segment does not provide an integration, and we had to integrate with it manually. We would still want to list it in our ConsentManager popup.

We would be using the standalone version, since we don't use React, so as far as I understand, it's our only option. I tried to pass the customCategories, object, but every time I add an integration that is not present on Segment, it doesn't get added to the Tools/Integrations column. Thank you.

It would be very helpful to receive some guidance about this. Most of our integrations are added through Segment, but a few of them are not available at all within the Segment UI, so we have no choice but to add them to our web app manually. I've only just started trying to troubleshoot this, but it seems to me that using a third party consent banner would be quite complicated (and possibly a nonstarter) as Segment is responsible for adding a bunch of javascript <script> tags and as such I think we'd not be able to manage consent on a granular enough level.
