Use logstash to modify an event previously saved to elasticsearch

Specifically, I'm trying to tag the last event prior to an exception. So, when you encounter an event that matches some criterion, go back and find the last event and then add a tag to it. Is this possible?

I assume there are more convenient ways to handle this stuff down the pipeline. Kibana, for instance, should make this pretty easy. But I'm wondering whether there's a way to do it specifically within logstash.

I think this would be best achieved with our Watcher product. You'd want to setup a watch that would look for exceptions, then query for the event occurring previous to that.
