Description

In the same vein as the command kubectl debug <mypod> --image <myimage>, that adds a new debug container to the existing pod mypod, we would like to support the use case of starting the CDE containers in an existing Pod.

image

Initially we could should use an attribute to rapidly have the functionality and iterate if there are other things to add (i.e. Pod selector). Pod overrides, init containers etc...should be ignored as the Pod spec should not be changed. Specifying the target-pod-container is critical to support the process namespace sharing that allows attaching the IDE debugger to a process running in that container (this is the parameter --target of kubectl debug).

@l0rd great slides
I feel like this feature can shine on the OpenShift Topology view (extra "Debug" ConsoleLink for running pods)
