When can we get informer feature?

[Metal-joker]

this feature has been implemented by java and golang, and it's very hard to use java k8s client via scala. someone please end this miserable situation.

The "watch" feature, combined with ability to list resources, already gives a lot of the functionality of informers. The main additional benefit of informers seems to be the maintenance of a client-side cache of resources, which can improve performance and reduce load on the Kubernetes API for heavier use cases. I'd like to have this functionality in skuber, but it will come down to priorities as it is not a trivial amount of work - are there concrete use cases of skuber that can benefit significantly from informers?
