Kibana: Make tile map source configurable

[jimmyjones2]

Leaflet supports lots of other maps, so would be great if the map source was a config item rather than hardcoded to Mapquest. Leaflet also supports WMS, would be good to make this a config option too.

It is currently hardcoded to mapquest because it is the only tile server that doesn't require an API key. We plan to make this configurable in the future.

I would also really appreciate to have an option to use the old simple country-map from Kibana3. This would be really useful in offline-environments with no connection to internet-map-severs.
Alternatively it would be great to place pre-rendered maptiles somewhere Kibana can find them.

For testing purposes, there are a lot of available options for WMS servers.

• Skylab provides a list of public WMS servers: http://www.skylab-mobilesystems.com/en/wms_serverlist.html

I miss the nice grayscale vector maps from Kibana 3 for simple geo visualizations. Any chance of bringing that back?

While support for full-featured WMS-map-servers is great, but it seems a bit overkill for smaller offline-deployments. I've struggled for a few days now trying to set up my own WMS-server with data from openstreetmap. The ability to just specify a path to an mbtiles-file or somthing would be much simpler.
Does anyone have an idea or a tutorial to serve maps for kibana offline with minimum effort?

looks like now mapquest requires a key. what is the way to configure map source this in kibana 4 ? if possible with key ?
