action.auto_create_index
works great if you know all of the index names up front. It also tends to work well if there's a pattern to your index names.
However, where index names aren't named consistently, which is pretty common, then it's a hassle to whitelist them all. It also may be difficult to do with plugins.
I think that that it would make a lot of sense to have an additional whitelist option that allows users to whitelist any template-created index, like action.auto_create_index_from_template: true
that you can use if disabling normal auto creation. This would allow any index created by templates to be created even if they're not explicitly listed in action.auto_create_index
