Can you monitor Log Insight Logs in self yet?

Is it possible to Monitor the Log Insight's logs in itself yet?

If so, is it just a matter of configuring the syslog-ng.conf file to point to its IP?

Yes, you always could. The only recommendation is that you forward LI logs to a SEPARATE LI instance. The reason for this is because you can end of with circular reasoning (e.g. alert for query containing the word error, which would generate a LI log that contains the word error).
