Well the normal change was requested by the NPR community as well as the 
BGE community. A problem here should be addressed but maybe there is a 
workaround. A few months back this post was done according another 
normal addon 
http://blenderartists.org/forum/showthread.php?259554-Addon-EditNormals-Transfer-Vertex-Normals. 
And in the G+ anime forum we had some posts about how Softimage could 
change normals in an intuitive way: https://vimeo.com/115104048.

If it is not possible at this stage to create the desired effect, is it 
possible to do it in pyhton yes or no? I believe so because all the 
ingredients are in place. Afcourse that will not mean this will be an 
easy feat but it should not prove to difficult as well. Any ideas?
