As promised in the Patreon rewards, pledgers would see many previews and advances for new features first, it's just that we haven't been adding much recently given 3.0 is huge.
A large amount of users requested that an actual lightmapper is added to 3.0, given GIProbe requires relatively higher end hardware. It will be a rare last-minute addition, so here's some progress for it.
An UV unwrapper has been added that can generate unique UVs on the secondary channel on import automatically.

After this, work on a lightmapper will begin, should take a few days hopefully since it shares a lot of the code with GIProbe.
