Hello @alexzielenski 👋, v1.29 Enhancements team here.

Just checking in as we approach enhancements freeze on 01:00 UTC, Friday, 6th October, 2023.

This enhancement is targeting for stage alpha for v1.29 (correct me, if otherwise)

Here's where this enhancement currently stands:

• KEP readme using the latest template has been merged into the k/enhancements repo.
• KEP status is marked as implementable for latest-milestone: v1.29. KEPs targeting stable will need to be marked as implemented after code PRs are merged and the feature gates are removed.
• KEP readme has up-to-date graduation criteria
• KEP has a production readiness review that has been completed and merged into k/enhancements. (For more information on the PRR process, check here).

For this KEP, everything is taken care of in #4163. Please make sure to get the PR merged in time.

The status of this enhancement is marked as at risk for enhancement freeze. Please keep the issue description up-to-date with appropriate stages as well. Thank you!
