This could be done of course but there are some problems like the fact that the object space map doesn't necessarily come from file. It could be procedurally generated or just a bake in which case the sampler isn't supposed to swizzle. Also the texture sampler at least at this point in time doesn't know if it's an object space or a tangent space normal map. So though it can be done someone would have to work out all the corner cases.
