It's behaving like the Surface Inspector where many clicks on the scale buttons will introduce undo actions for each step. I'm sceptical that making one part of the Light Inspector not applying its changes like the rest of the controls. When waiting until the close event of the dialog, it'd be an easy things for the mapper to change the selection (e.g. by hitting ESC) and then there is a different set of lights selected by the time the dialog is closed. It has to be clear to the user that the texture change is not going to be applied until a certain action is done (maybe an "Apply Texture" button?). Or having a checkbox ("Immediately apply texture on selection") to control that auto-apply? I'd rather lean towards UI consistency than to save the actions on the undo stack, to be honest - but I'm open to hear mapper voices on how this should behave. |

An "Apply Texture" action would make the Light Inspector's behaviour consistent with that of the Media Browser. A checkbox "Immediately apply texture on selection" would let current mappers avoid having to reacclimatise, so it'd be a boon but not essential in the long term. |
