I don't think it's the same problem as with bending...

The normals are created with mathematical formulae, same with the
primitives - I am sure with the right combination of these two it would be
quite possible to do true surface deforms. The problem with bending is that
the mathematics behind bending a mathematical abstract is supposedly very
complex.

Well - I am not a maths guru, so if I am wrong, it won't surprize me too
much - it would be nice to know though...
