Provisioned Service has better discoverability because of this recommendation:
To facilitate discoverability, it is RECOMMENDED that a CustomResourceDefinition exposing a Provisioned Service add service.binding/provisioned-service: "true" as a label.
I propose to add a similar label for the Secret resource used for Direct Secret Reference, something like this:
To facilitate discoverability, it is RECOMMENDED that a Secret add service.binding/bindable: "true" as a label.
Since the Secret resource used for Direct Secret Reference has the same recommendation as that of Provisioned Service Secret, a dynamic type field may exist for Secret resources. A field selector can filter Secret resources like this:
kubectl get secrets --field-selector="type=service.binding/mysql"
This selector query is not generic, the value for type is not constant. If there is a constant label selector similar to that of Provisioned Service CRD, it is much easier to retrieve all bindable Secret resources.
I think the recommendation for the label can be added to the Secret resources used for Direct Secret Reference, and not for the Secrets used in the Provisioned Service.
The discovery concerns in the spec is not to find specific resources, but to find kinds of resources that can be bound. In this case, Secret is a well known kind.

Note: The label selectors for CRDs and Secret resources can be used for caching.
