What would you like to be added (User Story)?
As an operator, I want to downscale the number of machines but I want to remove certain machines only.
Consider a case where I've 10 machines object and I want to remove only 3 specific machines.
Detailed Description
As of now, I think CAPI docs doesn't cover this part.
Ref: https://main.cluster-api.sigs.k8s.io/tasks/automated-machine-management/scaling.html#scaling-nodes
I searched in slack and found the following information.
The deletion of the machines can be controlled by an annotation
cluster.x-k8s.io/delete-machine
It works for both machinedeployments and kubeadmcontrolplane objects.
Anything else you would like to add?
happy to send a patch once it's triaged.
