- Fallback from OpenAPI V3 to V2 when the OpenAPI V3 document is invalid or incomplete. ([#117980](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117980), [@seans3](https://github.com/seans3)) [SIG CLI]

  The `EventsToRegister` in `EnqueueExtension` changed the return value from `ClusterEvent` to `ClusterEventWithHint`. `ClusterEventWithHint` allows each plugin to filter out more useless events via the callback function named `QueueingHintFn`.

- Added `kubectl node drain` helper callbacks `OnPodDeletionOrEvictionStarted`
  and `OnPodDeletionOrEvictionFailed`; people extending `kubectl` can use these
  new callbacks for more granularity. Deprecated the `OnPodDeletedOrEvicted`
  node drain helper callback. ([#117502](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117502), [@adilGhaffarDev](https://github.com/adilGhaffarDev))

  previous releases. When this happens, a `LifecycleHTTPFallback` event is recorded
  in the namespace of the pod and a `kubelet_lifecycle_handler_http_fallbacks_total`
  metric in the kubelet is incremented. Cluster administrators can opt out of the
  expanded lifecycle handler capabilities by setting
  `--feature-gates=ConsistentHTTPGetHandlers=false` in `kubelet`.'
