- Ensure Job status updates are batched by 1s. This fixes an unlikely scenario when a sequence of immediately 
  completing pods could trigger a sequence of non-batched Job status updates. ([#118470](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118470), [@mimowo](https://github.com/mimowo)) [SIG Apps]
