Description

If you import by drag & drop without Import Into Level, the material will be maintained even if you change it.

This is because FFbxImporter::ReimportStaticMesh() sets ImportOptions->bImportMaterials = false;.
FFbxImporter::ReimportSceneStaticMesh() does not set it.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Importing FBX attached with Import Into Level.

2. Change the material of an imported static mesh.

3. Right-click and Reimport will return the material.
