Your idea sounds reasonable. The only thing to be aware of is client nodes generally need to run the same version of ES and also Java version as the server/data nodes. Also you'll need to maintain an IP list in each client node for it to see the server/data nodes in the case of unicast discovery. This may or may not matter but you'd need to take care of these in deployment or when you do upgrades.
