Provide a way to identify operator generated resoruces
It could be helpful to identify the resources created by the controller. Currently some teams in our clusters are creating their own network policies and they may get confused with the new NetworkPolicies we are injecting into their namespaces. They don't have an easy way to identify how such resources are created.
The common method for such case is to place an ownerReferences to the generated object with the triggering resource's reference (e.g. NamespaceConfig). But this will likely impact the implementation of the NamespaceConfig resources' deletion since Kubernetes itself will also try to delete the owned objects once the owner resource (NamespaceConfig) is removed.
Other options could be adding an annotation/label.
