Hey there,  
So I'm really happy to see that es 6.2 offers the ignore\_filters for the audit trail (super helpful). But I was curious if this option is coming to the index output method? I tried adding it and ES doesn't register it as an option.

```
  security:
    enabled: true
    audit:
      enabled: true
      outputs: [index]
      index:
        events:
          ignore_filters:
            policy1:
              users: ["filebeat"]
        exclude: [connection_granted, realm_authentication_failed]
        emit_request_body: true
```
