I came here to file the same issue. As an operator, debugging canary/stable deployments and visualizing how services interact with each other can be very challenging with just istioctl. Instead, I would love to have a visualization like shown right at the top of https://www.kiali.io/ to be able to debug and visualize this more easily.

On second thought, this might be better to configure at the fabrikate-cloud-native level because I can link Kiali into Jaeger and Grafana then. I am experimenting with that with this PR: https://github.com/timfpark/fabrikate-cloud-native/pull/8/files

On third thought, Kiali needs a secret added as well with the username and passphrase. I added a pull request to add this secret by default and downstream components can override this username and passphrase and provide jaeger and grafana endpoints.
