Hello,  
I am using the [elasticsearch-transport-wares](https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch-transport-wares) plugin to deploy Elasticsearch as a WAR. Does anyone know if this will continue to be a valid way to deploy Elasticsearch? I ask because there have been recent changes with Kibana to disallow deploying Kibana as a static webapp.

Thanks in advance!

It's not something we support, so you're on your own here sorry!
