I tried this a few years ago. IIRC my solution was to have the day lit 
map just above the night map. And difference the day lit sphere with a 
box, another sphere would do as well. The terminator was very straight.
But with clever unions you will be able to keep the night side away from 
the sun and it can be animated.
