First, povray.programming is really for how to program stuff that make
POV, not how to use POV.
So really your question belongs to the povray.text.scene-file group.
Second, I was challenged by your question and I came up with two ways
to deal with the problem :
one keeps dead straight lines between all corners.
the second tries to make corners as if they were not deformed (right
at the corner) and the rest smoothly deformed.
You can try either my StraighSolid or my TwistedSolid below.
I have done very quick testing so there may be bugs I did not spot (I
did not really check all faces were where they should be), but it
looks OK as it is.
Be warn though that this is made up of bezier patches and they cannot
take part in CSG.
