Kibana Index Patterns are visible to all users

Elastic Stack Kibana

Hi,

I have installed Kibana 5.2.0 with X-Pack. I created 2 indexes, e.g logging-a-07.03.2017, logging-b-07.03.2017 with index patterns logging-a*, logging-b*
I created role 'a' which can access index pattern logging-a* with following privileges
monitor,read,create,write,create_index,index,view_index_metadata

I created an user and assinged it roles a, kibana_user. When I tried to log in with this user, the user can see the index pattern logging-b* also, eventhough role a has no access to indexpattern logging-b*. Not only that, user is also able to delete the indexpattern logging-b* using Management tab of Kibana. Ofcourse user is not able to see any data from logging-b* index, but he can delete it and when i tried to login in with the user who has access to logging-b* index, i can see that, the index pattern was deleted.

I have an usecase where i need to create users based on index patters. I might probably have 20 index patterns and each index pattern will have some users. I dont want all these index patterns to be displayed for all users. Is it possible to do that?

Thanks in Advance.

@sgarap the only way to currently do that is to set up multiple instances of Kibana.
