Description

As described in the initial glTF PBR PR #861, thin-walled support was not implemented due to technological limitations.

With the recent changes in MaterialX 1.39 (PR #1866), it seems that the functionality can now be implemented.

Research direction

Start by reading the initial glTF PBR PR #861 and the MaterialX 1.39 changes in PR #1866. Trace how thin-walledness is represented and determine the implementation and validation work needed for glTF PBR support; done means the functionality is implemented and covered by the relevant tests.
