Research direction

Start by reading the texture error handling in src/systems/material.js around line 312 and the materialtextureloaded event in src/utils/material.js around line 119. Determine how the loading failure should be exposed through the event or callback, then verify that consumers can distinguish successful and failed texture loads.
