After reflecting on the implementation PR: kubernetes/kubernetes#86102

I think this needs a KEP as it loosens validation, and as a result, the feature requires that all kubelets have the support enabled before the API server accepts its usage. Will write a quick KEP now.

Took a quick 👀 and the kep would need alpha graduation criteria but other than that it has the testplans, implementable state, etc... So would need that update and to merge before October 6th

[kikisdeliveryservice]

PR #2055 was updated and now it meets the criteria (pending sig-node review ofc), we'll just need this to merge by October 6th to be included in 1.20
