Decal Images/textures' in Cells

Transfered from EAP Ideas list
I would like to insert images into cells as decals or textures. Bentley has invested a lot of effort in promoting the integration of visualisation into mainstream workflows.
Sigange is one one use case where better tools are urgently needed. Transportation projects have huge amounts of signage and information screens that need to be verified visually for sightlines, ergonomic readbility etc. It would be very helpful if signage 'decals' can be integrated into the model / cells as easily and quickly as possible. We currently have to apply the signage decals in photoshop which means fee-robbing rework for every view and every iteration.
1. Currently, the Materials tools are pretty hopeless as far as helping the user scale, rotate the decal on screen. Something along the lines of what SU has would be good. Can proper Accudraw-savvy widgets be included in EAP2?
2. Allow Inserted OLE images to be View Independent. Can this be included in EAP2?

Max texture size in an OLE ? 4096 x 4096 pixels?
