What are the current plans/aims of the deferred renderer? I seem to recall coming across a GitHub issue in the past (but can't find it now) that mentioned that this wouldn't be an aim of bevy for the foreseeable future. What changed?

This essentially came down to: 1. We've started blurring the lines by having optional depth and normal prepasses (to enable new rendering features) 2. We have renderer devs that are currently experimenting in this space

Whether or not (and how) we embrace deferred will come down to the user experience, effects on the render plugin ecosystem, desired features, perf characteristics, etc. The decision hasn't been fully made yet, but we're going to explore the space.
