Description

UDN users have reported hangs in the material editor when editing specifi material instances. This seems to be a threading bug, as CompileDebugViewModeShaders()  is waiting for a shader compilation to complete which does not happen.

Attached is a sample project from a UDN user with MIs triggering this behaviour.

Link to UDN case: [Link Removed]

Steps to Reproduce
  1. Open attached project sample.
  2. Open a MaterialInstance in the sample.
  3. Edit a static parameter and save.

Observe the editor freezes. This does not always occur.
