Changing ShaderGraph Material is not immediately reflected in the VFX Output

Unity: Visual Effects

We acknowledge this issue. It stems from the lack of a UI event that detects name changes. As a workaround, moving the VFX context will resynchronize the status.

How to reproduce:

Open the attached package
Open SG and VFX
Change Material from Unlit to Lit in SG
Save SG
Observe that Output shows material as Unlit (changes in the output inspector are reflected immediately)

Actual result: Material is shown as Unlit in VFX when saving SG (If you select VFX and drag Output a bit then it shows the correct name)

Expected result: Material is shown as Lit in VFX when saving SG

Reproducible with versions: 6000.3.0a6

Notes:

Changes do not affect Output Inspector, they are reflected immediately
I did test trunk only
