Confusing error message when indexing is behind #471

When log indexing is getting a bit behind Kibana will display this error message:

No indices matched The pattern [logstash-]YYYY.MM.DD did not match any indices in your selected time range.

This happens because Kibana can't find today's index when the default timespan is a few hours back. However, such indexes do exist for previous dates.

Maybe in the case Kibana found no "indices in your selected time range" it could go ahead and make additional check to see if there are at all such indices, and if there are it could say something about indexing being behind?

I think the "selected time range" part is pretty clear. Also, I don't think index creation lag is the reason most people will see this error. Suppose it couldn't hurt to say something to the tune of "the latest one we found was for YYYY.MM.DD".

When there are no records to show, Kibana 4 will say "No records found" but that's the best we can do.
