Flexible Appointment End Times

Hello, I wanted to submit a feature request for appointment scheduling. It would be really helpful if appointments could have a maximum duration rather than a fixed duration. For example, a service might normally last up to 2 hours, but if a customer books close to the end of business hours, the appointment would automatically end at closing time instead of preventing the booking or extending beyond operating hours. Example: Business hours: 12:00 PM to 5:00 PM Standard appointment length: up to 2 hours Customer books at 4:30 PM Booking is confirmed for 4:30 PM to 5:00 PM This would allow businesses to make use of otherwise unavailable time near closing while still respecting operating hours. Is this something that's currently supported, or would it be possible to consider adding in the future? Thank you!

    Likewise, it would be helpful to have flexible custom time slots.

    It would be nice to manually adjust the duration of the appointment at the appointment level. Some clients, you know, are faster, and others need more time. I think we should be able to manually book certain appointments. For example, I have a walk-in at 10:15, but my appointments are on the hour, yet I know I can finish them in 45 minutes. I still want to record the client in the system. But I don't want it to impede my 11 am. time slot.
