Native integration between AKS and Azure Key Vault
It makes sense to have some sort of smart integration between kubernetes secrets and azure key vault.
I.e.
containers:
env:
- name: CLIENT_ID
valueFrom:
azureSecretKeyRef:
name: client-details
key: client-id

It would be great if this was a native option and includes injection of environment variables / same functionality as existing k8s secrets. Many apps are written to use environment variables rather than file-based keys.
A secrets.yaml file could reference the key vault secret keys k8s needs. The secret or environment could be decrypted as part of the injector process. Could look to other tools such as Databricks for the similar cluster-based patterns.
Some best practices around storing base64 encoded secrets yaml files in Devops library, and ability to store yaml files in Key Vault or other encrypted-at-rest mechanism would be useful.

and when you are enabling this, please ensure it work with OSBA as well

Storing Kubernetes secrets in Azure Key Vault is useful for environments where FIPS 140-2 Level 2 validated HSMs are required for secret storage.
