I finally wrote my own MercatorProjection, but I suspect that the V3 code doesn't use it.
To see a demo of the resulting day/night shading on a map see: http://pskreporter.info/grid/test.html Note that the shading is calculated locally and is for the current time (and auto-updates -- currently every 10 seconds for demo purposes, but in real life, probably once per minute). Unfortunately, it doesn't work in IE owing to the lack of a canvas object. The explorer canvas project doesn't help as they don't support one of the canvas methods that I need. Anyway, it works in a modern firefox and chrome. No image tiles were used!
