Wildcards in daily indices

[graineri]

I'm not sure this is a bug or it works as expected.

The index pattern I'm trying to use looks like: [events-]*[-]YYYY.MM.DD

The asterisk is there because we have an ID in between. So, I'm expecting to match indexes such as:
events-724-2015.05.28.

Is there a way to accomplish this?

We currently do not support wildcards in timestamped indices. We're unlikely to fix this in any case as we're removing the generation of timestamped indices in Kibana 4.2.0 and replacing it with a more efficient optimization that utilizes the new _field_stats API in Elasticsearch 1.6
