Editor: Import glTF as root scene.

[Mugen87]

Fixed #32662.

Description

Allows to import the scene of a glTF file as the editor's root scene instead of adding it as a child. The kind of import can be configured in the settings tab, see #32662 (comment).

Any chance you can add a screenshot or a video to the post?

Oh, it's a new option in the settings panel.

How about showing a dialog before loading?

How about showing a dialog before loading?

I've though about a dialog first but then it would pop up every time you import a glTF asset which becomes quickly annoying.

That's what blender does. It shows a dialog every time you import a GLTF and let's you configure how to import it.

[Mugen87]

When you use File>Import, Blender shows a combination of file selection and settings. If you go in the editor and select File>Import, a standard file input opens that can't be further configured. So we need two dialogs. One for selecting the file and another one for glTF specific settings. Isn't that inconvenient?

Besides, the dialog needs to be shown every time you drag'n'drop an asset. I know Blender does this but I'm not a fan of this workflow, tbh (This is just my personal preference though).

[Mugen87]

But... if you prefer the dialog approach, I can give it a try. I mean I don't insist on the approach in the setting tab 😇 .

Closing in favor of #32784.
