Automatically detect drift between the org and main git branch
Currently we can automatically monitor and report on changes made to an org via the Change Monitoring dashboard. This compares an org snapshot to the previous days snapshot.
However, what would be really useful now we have pipelines enabled is the ability to automatically report on org drift from our Github main branch, using a specified filter (i.e. the same filter as our Pipeline CI Jobs use). This would allow us to track, understand and hopefully reduce the amount of drift that occurs in pipeline-relevant objects, making the pipeline more robust.

I know it isn't an automated solution, but we set up a Validation only CI Job that validates main/master against production. It runs daily.
From the Job History, you can then view the summary to see what is different.
Doesn't specifically address your feature request, but might serve as a good workaround.
