Hi, I would like to remove this icon because it is confusing for my end users because they think that these messages are for them, but in fact these are just overall messages for the ELK stack. Is there a way to remove this? I can't seem to find settings for it. ![Screen Shot 2020-05-26 at 7.39.34 PM](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/8/4/8413ebc7458a10a8f6f8695a038053c4eab07b0a.png) ---
