###How to reproduce:

1. Create a material
2. Set it’s domain to User Interface (don’t know if it matters)
3. Create a Texture Object **Parameter**
4. Connect it into a Texture Sampler node
5. Connect any Texture Sampler output into a material output pin (so the TextureSampler gets evaluated)
6. Create a reroute node between the TexObject and the TextureSampler nodes

###Result:  
The compiler complains about improper texture type (see bottom of attached image), even if both nodes use same Sampler Type.

###Expected:  
No problems, like when the TextureObject is not a parameter (it works normally with reroute).

###Current workaround:  
Use no reroutes.
