textproc/kibana50 and version of node.js

[Miroslav Lachman]

Hi,
we are using npm + node in version 7.8.0 and ElasticSearch in version 
5.0.2. Now we need Kibana and Kibana X-Pack but official Kibana has 
bundled node v0.10 or v0.12, FreeBSD port of Kibana has dependency on 
node v4. It is conflicting with already installed and used node v7.

Is it possible to run Kibana with node v7 or it will not work at all?

According to this https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/kibana/current/setup.html
"Running Kibana against a separately maintained version of Node.js is 
not supported."

Kind regards
