Description

Describe the problem

Reading Mode as implemented in MRTK v2 is incompatible with URP. This would be a great fit for an MRGT feature, as it is a low level (and possibly "accessibility"-related feature) tied to render features and overall graphical quality of the MR app.

Describe the solution you'd like

Some sort of opt-in URP render feature thingy that enables Reading Mode!

Describe alternatives you've considered

Not using URP :(
