+ - User Groups & Dashboard folders with ACLs (work started, not yet completed, https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/1611#issuecomment-287742633)
+ - Improve new user UX
+ - Improve docs
+ - Support for alerting for Elasticsearch (can be tested in [branch](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/tree/alerting-elasticsearch) but needs more work)
