Newly installed versions of the engine will now attempt to copy the project-agnostic config settings from a previous engine installation. This happens by way of a versioned manifest that copies old versions when the manifest does not exist, or is a different version. This code path is benign for non-installed versions of the engine (or FPaths::ShouldSaveToUserDir() is false).
EditorGameAgnosticSettings and EditorUserSettings ini paths have been renamed to EditorSettings and EditorPerProjectUserSettings respectively to better convey their purpose. In general, most settings should be saved in EditorSettings (project-agnostic) so that they apply regardless of which project is open. We have some way to go migrating existing settings for this to be the case, however.
Some previously per-project configuration files are now project-agnostic (such as Editor.ini, EditorKeyBindings.ini, and EditorLayout.ini)
GEditor->Access...Settings and GEditor->Get...Settings have been removed in favor of direct access of the CDO through GetMutableDefault<> and GetDefault<> respectively. Global config ini filenames that are not set up are now neither loaded nor saved on build machines, to handle the problem of indeterminate state more generically.
This addresses UETOOL-270 (Most editor preferences should be project-agnostic)

This allows you to align your view in the editor, select an actor in the
world outliner or in scene, right-click and select "Snap Actor to
Camera". Actor will then set its location and rotation to match the
view. This is super handy for quickly finding an awesome camera view in
the editor and then making your CameraActors match that view.

When a selected actor is reinstanced, a details view (displaying details of the actor) needs to be refreshed.
An alternative solution: don't check SDetailsView::ShouldSetNewObjects (refresh always )
OR store an object's hash in SDetailsView (and compare it in the ShouldSetNewObjects)

Known issues:

#jira UE-8109 - The favorites list for levels displays a max of ten levels, but you are still given the option to add more
#change Changed favorites menu to not have an upper limit. Favorites now organized so the most recently added/opened is at the head of the list. Only the first five favorite levels are displayed on the main menu, the others are on a submenu.
