How do you prevent a team from deploying to namespaces they don't own?

Intermediate

Answer

Constrain the AppProject's destinations to the team's clusters/namespaces (with patterns like team-a-*). Even with sync rights, apps in that project can't target other namespaces, because the project rejects disallowed destinations at validation.
destinations:
  - server: '*'
    namespace: 'team-a-*'
Real-world example Team A's apps can only deploy into team-a-* namespaces; a manifest targeting kube-system is rejected.
