Ability to chose the displayed "playing" status on discord

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
In Discord, the "playing" status will show that I am playing "DiscordBee". It's fine to be honest, but it could be a nice-to-have feature to be able to customize this field. ÍMHO the main issue of displaying "DiscordBee" is that many people have no clue what it is, and that name itself is not self-explanatory. I don't want people at working thinking I am playing games x)
Describe the solution you'd like
Ideally, if the plugins' options could have a field to set the "game" name displayed in Discord, that would be top.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Alternatively, a compromise could be to display "MusicBee" of even just "music" instead of "DiscrodBee". Not everyone knows MusicBee, but at least it's more transparent, and "music" even more so; since Discord proceeds the "game name" by "user is playing".
This can't be done directly via the plugin. You have to create your own discord application and use its App ID in the plugin settings (see the DiscordBee readme).
Also the Default is already "MusicBee" as it always was. And yes its impossible to change the "playing" to "listening" for example. see #3 for more info.
Huh, I guess changing the discord app name should work then
EDIT: Yup it works, it just requires to restart Musicbee to apply the change too. Thanks!
