I think it would make sense to also support lists of Item objects into the exclusions param.

@27Saumya can you please implement this suggestion? Being able to pass the actual Item objects to exclude rather than only supporting exclusion by index would be ideal.

@krittick how that though like what shall I typehint?
This: exclusions: List[Union[discord.ui.Button, discord.ui.Select]]
?

it should be a list of discord.ui.Item iirc

[krittick]

List[Union[int, discord.ui.Item]]

Then just use isinstance to check what's being passed and handle appropriately.

Perhaps it should only allow item types that can be disabled.

[plun1331]

This is only disabling the things passed to the exclusions parameter, the exact opposite of what is wanted.

Was going to say, what's the point in the current script? It just disables all those in the list.
Surely you want to disable everything not in the list?

This change should finish up the PR
