Using namePrefix when deploying using OCI artifacts containing kustomize files

[bukington]

Hi,
I'm deploying multiple instances of an app that is deployed using kustomize. Following the great documentation here https://fluxcd.io/flux/faq/#should-i-be-using-kustomize-remote-bases, I decided to leverage OCI artifacts.
Basically I have artifacts available and I want to deploy multiple version of my app using different OCI artifact version (so different OCIRepository objects).
Before moving to fluxcd, I setup kustomize "namePrefix" before "kustomize build" on each app instance in order to differentiate them, as they're deployed in the same namespace. fluxcd Kustomization object does not support namePrefix and going through the docs & spec I can't find a work around to achieve this.
How can I achieve the same behavior of kustomize namePrefix when deploying kustomize based application with OCI artifacts?
Thanks.

I checked the code and it looks to me that it should be easy to add, following what exist for example for namespaces or patches: https://github.com/fluxcd/pkg/blob/main/kustomize/kustomize_generator.go#L159
I'm wondering if there's any reason it has not been done already.

For the record, this has been implemented.
