Research direction
The issue concerns component schemas consumed by the A-Frame Inspector and other editors, especially material parameters; no implementation files or tests are named. Trace the schema entry points and existing editor-facing consumers first, then define what the two human-readable fields must mean and verify that schema consumers can use them without breaking existing schemas.
