Currently, bots can use setMy* API methods to change their own name, description, profile photo, etc. instead of manually having to set them using BotFather.
However, the same is not possible for mode settings, including group/channel settings, inline mode, business mode, guest mode, and bot-to-bot communication mode.
It would be therefore useful to add a method like setMyModes (and getMyModes), especially for Managed Bots, or bots which are actually run/managed by a different person/entity/software rather than their owner (e.g. "clone bots" created before managed bots were introduced).
