Yep but how do you get that to a d_es destination without adding an
external tool ?
My understanding of the purpose is that stats may stop getting updated if
the pipeline fails so It needs to be a separate "thread" but seems like
that would be handled in separate src and destination definitions ?

i.e. Keep your stats/monitoring separate from the data stream.
