Metric for Displaying Search Index Consistency Lag

I would like a metric that shows me what the latency is between the state of the MongoDB collection and the Search index in Atlas. The difference between the optime of the collection and the optime of the Search index would be the latency. Please consider exposing this metric.

    Sorry for the delay! this has been available for a while in the Atlas UI metrics tab. See all available metrics here. ( https://www.mongodb.com/docs/atlas/reference/alert-conditions/#mongodb-alert-Atlas-Search--Index-Replication-Lag-is )

    This would certainly be a great addition and if it is added as a Metric I think it makes sense to add an appropriate Alert associated to this Metric.
