Well clearly I didn't try hard enough -- the ansible roles look perfectly reasonable. A quick look through the notes I took and my biggest problems were with:
- Close versions of ES+Kibana not working together
- maxConcurrentShardRequests not being set on Kibana for some reason (so when I got them talking, a silly query parameter was holding everything up)
- I wasted a ton of time due to some files from a failed installation causing an obtuse error -- I think it was a NoShardAvailableActionException
