Kerbals need parachutes!!!!

Other than the EVA Jet pack all Kerbals need a parachute!!!!

Its shown in the cinematic trailer when the game was released. So I imagine it'll be added at a later date

The cinematic trailer takes a lot of “artistic license,” and I would be reluctant to draw any conclusions from it.

It would be nice if theyhave chutes though.

They were eventually added in KSP1, so I imagine it’s on their detailed internal roadmap to add eventually here too. I hope. It was a fun challenge to land on the VAB or whatever from high altitude, and it made for a fun way to deal with a falling apart airplane or spaceplane other than reverting the flight entirely.

I'm thinking maybe there should also be G-force and dynamic pressure limitations on kerbals going on EVA to accompany this. That would keep a certain risk of kerbals being unable to bail out in extreme situations like a craft rapidly spinning due to a solid booster or a plane going supersonic.

Yes, but I think they should be available as an option not always there by default.
