Normal Map support

Bump maps are nice, to put it friendly. They only encode some abstract height and the 3D renderer then creates an angle out of it.
It's much more precise - and faster, too - to use normal maps instead of bump mapping. Any chance to get that from NL - or would this be rather a thing the SDK would be needed for?
Normal maps, together with some diffusion maps (which would translate to absorption maps I guess) give results like this:
C & C welcome!
