Restore kibana from a snapshot

[NightSpark (Jason McGrath)]

Hi,
Is it possible to just restore the .kibana system index from a snapshot?

This is in the event that, through human error, an alert is modified and we wish to restore the original without losing other data that may have been loaded to other indexes.
