The thing is, Slack isn't really really good at async communication at all. If I @mentioned someone and asked them a question, if they haven't responded to it within an hour or two, the odds of them coming back and answering it are extremely slim. People do miss e-mails, but not to that degree.

They already have the concept of unread items and threads, they could just add a channel / tab for DM's you haven't explicitly replied to (or acknowledged). I feel like slack (and competitors) have a lot of room to grow still.
