Kibana version: 6.3

Consider this setup:

This results in the index management UI's main table showing all indices in the cluster but only index stats for the test* indices.

But there are cases where you may want to limit user access so that they can only deal with their own set of indices (i.e. not be able to tell the index names or stats of the "other" indices in the cluster, or not even see the names of the indices).

The challenge here is that if I disable cluster level monitor privileges and only provide the monitor privilege for the test* indices, then the main table is completely blank (will not even show the test* entries).

It will be nice if there is a way to get the index management UI to only list the indices the user is allowed to see/manage.
