Research direction
Start by locating the engine's GGX specular calculation and the rendering path it uses; the issue does not name files or tests. Determine how LUT-based calculations would fit before GGX is exposed in the editor. Done means the GGX specular calculations use LUTs and the editor-exposure prerequisite is addressed.
