    I can adjust it to accept a list of alerts.  I agree that would be better.
    
    Yes the endpoint expects all alert data to be passed in.  I'm trying to 
avoid an extra ES call (alert data will travel across the network either way).  
    
    But now that you bring it up I'm not sure.  Do we want to make it flexible 
so that an alert can be annotated/modified before being escalated?  Would 
fetching an alert from ES be unnecessary since it's assumed the client will 
already have a copy?  Would we want to ensure that the most recent version in 
ES is always escalated?  Should we expose both options?
