As discussed in #4240
1. Load the KML demo.
2. Switch to 2D
3. Billboards are broken (Similar problems in Columbus View)

May be the same root cause as #4300 and #4062.

We should really fix this before the next release.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue with the KML demo: switch to 2D and inspect the broken billboards, then compare the behavior in Columbus View. Read the discussion in #4240 and related issues #4300 and #4062 for the suspected root cause. Done means ground-clamped billboards render correctly in both 2D and Columbus View.
