Detail Map for non-terrain

I noticed that only TerrainSceneNodes can be assigned a detail map. I'd like to have the same for non-terrain (i.e. regular geometry meshes), is it possible? Perhaps through some mix of two textures and a material type setting?

You need to be able to convert meshes to use S3DVertex2TCoords, since detail mapping materials require 2 texture coordinates.

Aha, but I think I could settle with using the first texture's coordinates since I do not need to tile the detail map for non-terrain geometry.

Then, you'd have to change the detail map material in the engine.
