Any plans to implement node (horizontal) auto-scaling for kubernetes (LKE)?

I want my website backend to automatically scale the number of linodes/nodes/machines/computers based on load (memory or CPU usage). I'd like to set a lower bound and upper bound on the Linode Manager, and have Linode automatically create and destroy nodes for me. Any plans for this in the near future?

I'm aware of this community repo but it's a lot to trust my wallet with this home-brewed script: https://github.com/meezaan/linode-k8s-autoscaler

Just want to say that this feature is probably make or break for me because I need horizontal auto-scaling for my service but I would hate to switch away from linode! ♥

This is a commonly requested feature that is being actively worked on by our team, but I'm afraid I don't have a great timeframe to provide you for when we plan to release.
