- Window menu is now sectioned and labeled based on the current editor. There's now a local workspace root member in FTabManager and a workspace category in FAssetEditorToolkit (both are FWorkspaceItem objects). Individual editors attach their local category to the tab manager's local root. Workflow app modes have their own category members that are swapped out when the mode changes.
- Finally, the AssetEditorCategory of FWorkspaceMenuStructure has been removed entirely.
- Replaced the AddMenuSeparator() call in FTabManager::PopulateSpawnerMenu_Helper() with a section of the same title as the workspace category.
- Tab spawner menu entries for the local editor now properly show the icon of the associated tab. To accomplish this it was necessary to change FWorkflowTabFactory::TabIcon to be an FSlateIcon instead of an FSlateBrush*. All factory instances have been updated accordingly.
- Added & updated lots of icons! (those missing will be TTP'd)
- The nomad tab spawner section (named "General" in the menu) has been largely compressed into the Developer Tools submenu, which has also been organized into sections for readability.
- Unreal frontend options were also moved into a context menu within the General section
- Moved all experimental tools to their own section of the Window menu. When they're no longer experimental they should register as nomads in the appropriate category
- Undo history now under Edit menu

The AppFramework module is intended to be used for compound widgets and UI related classes that are too specific (not basic enough) for Slate, but also not Editor specific (reusable in non-Editor applications and games). The test suite has been moved in its entirety for now, but core widget specific test classes will eventually be split off and moved back into Slate, so that they can live alongside of their corresponding widgets.
Other changes:
- moved to "include what you use" scheme for SColorPicker
- broke out color picker related widgets that may be reusable
- added forward declarations to reduce header include dependencies

- Removed UI for Built-In Stats. Martin didn't like the feature but I've left the code in just in case people miss it.
- Removed useless bar at the bottom of the stats window.
- Hackily canceled some unnessessary compilaton when opening the editor.

NOTE: Old tutorials not deprecated (yet), but widget highlights in old tutorials will stop working with this change!
Added new Blueprintable UEditorTutorial object.
Added suite of widgets and details customizations to display tutorials.
New system is available on command line switch -NewTutorials.
Slate changes:
Tag names are now stored in SWidgets, rather than simply being discarded.
Removed STutorialWrapper in favour of using Tags.
Added Tags to more multibox widgets, so virtually all can now be picked.
Added SWindow::HasOverlay so we dont attempt to add overlays to widows that cannot have them.

Made sure preview material is compiled when opening editor.
Made sure CodeView is cleared and not regenerated if live preview is off until the material has been recompiled.
[CL 2175874 by Simon Tovey in Main branch]
Toggles the compilation of the preview material everytime an edit is made.
#ttp 333463 - LIVE: RENDERING: Shaders compile automatically even when Live Nodes and Live Updates are Deselected
The Live Update, Live Nodes (and now Live Preview) toggles clearly aren't universally understood. I've added the live preview toggle to do what this user wanted. It may be an idea to have some UI guys see if extra clarity can be had from tootips/docs/icons etc.
