      Currently following documentation found at https://plugins.jenkins.io/kubernetes/#plugin-content-inheritance for leveraging pod template inheritance. 

      Following the example does not produce the expected outcome where the resulting pod container uses an updated image for the specified container.

      JCasC pod base template definition

      templates:
- name: "jenkins-agent"
  namespace: "jenkins-agents"
  containers:
  - name: jnlp
    image: jnlp:latest
    command: "tail -f /dev/null"
    workingDir: "/home/jenkins/agent"
  - name: maven
    image: maven:latest
    command: "tail -f /dev/null"

      Declarative pipeline definition

      pipeline {
  agent {
    kubernetes {
      cloud 'gke'
      inheritFrom 'jenkins-agent'
      yaml '''
      spec:
        containers:
        - name: maven
          image: maven:3.8.1-jdk-11
'''
    }
  }
  stages {
    ...
  }
}

      The resulting agent pod still contains the base maven image rather than the attempted overridden version for the maven container.
