Yes, you can inject your own controls from a plugin, in the top navigation of Discover, using `navbarExtensions`. This allows you to add your own interface and controls, which you could use to show a form and create records in Elasticsearch, which would then appear in the documents and count chart shown in Discover as well.

You can read more about how that works in [this discuss thread](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/dev-on-kibana-plugin-navbar-icon-disappear-when-switching-tabs/66612).
