System Information
Operating system: RTX 3080 Windows 10

Blender Version
Broken: 3.2.1, 3.1, 3.4
Worked: 2.79

Short description of error
World Background does not work in solid mode

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

Open blank blender scene
Attach a spherical panorama to the world (jpg or hdri)
in the shading options change from Theme to World
Notice how the world does not change

Expected Behaviour : Switching to World, would act like World Background in 2.79 which allows artists to manipulate the rotation of the HDRI without having to switch to material mode (which on production scenes can be problematic)

Attach a spherical panorama to the world (jpg or hdri)

Do you mean add a texture to the World material?
If so it's not a bug.
The World shading option makes the Workbench use the color defined in Viewport Shading.

In 2.79, the Workbench is equivalent to the Solid view, which also does not use a Texture for the World.

Hi there,

Do you mean add a texture to the World material?

Yes

In 2.79, the Workbench is equivalent to the Solid view, which also does not use a Texture for the World.

Yes it does, in 2.79 there is an option to have a texture for the world

This is very useful for infrastructure animations, where material mode (and eevee) are horribly slow.

Thanks for the report, but this is something that should have been discussed during planning for 2.8.

I tried to report issues during 2.8 development, but was told that it was bug fixes only (look at my bug report history).

I was assured that any regressions from 2.79 which were valid (which this is) would be tackled later.

Now I am being told that I should have reported it during 2.8's development. This is contradictory.

It should have been discussed in the proper channels, not as a bug report, as a feature being removed or moved is not necessarily a bug.
