- apiserver_flowcontrol_latest_s: S(the request last dispatched) = R(when that request starts executing in the virtual world)
  - apiserver_flowcontrol_next_s_bounds: min and max next S among non-empty queues

- The apiserver debug endpoint `/debug/api_priority_and_fairness/dump_requests` has been extended to dump executing requests as well as queued ones.  A column for StartTime has been added to the returned table, with the queued requests having a StartTime of "0001-01-01T00:00:00Z".  The executing requests have a RequestIndexInQueue of -1, and the QueueIndex is also -1 for priority levels without queues. ([#119009](https://github.com/kubernetes/kube...

- Added Coordinated Leader Election as Alpha under the `CoordinatedLeaderElection` feature gate. With the feature enabled, the control plane can use LeaseCandidate objects (coordination.k8s.io/v1alpha1 API group) to participate in a leader election and let the kube-apiserver select the best instance according to some strategy.
