    VK_AMDX_shader_enqueue is a temporary vendor extension for the Vulkan port of D3D12 Work Graphs and will serve as the foundation for KHR/EXT extensions.

      This is huge. If I understand it correctly, then it could also be used to sort Raytracing hits and resolve the color on a per-material basis, allowing to group their processing and avoid branching, thus achieving higher effective ALU utilization. Functionally, this would be similar to Nvidia's SER, although mesh shaders and other stuff may benefit aswell.
