Thanks. I had a quick read of the thread linked, if I was a
stronger/better programmer I would see if I could contribute.
For now I plan calculate/plot the angle between the normal and each the
X,Y,Z planes. I hopefully the 3 subplots will visually convey
sufficient information.

Quiver uses a PolyCollection, and I see that there is a
Poly3DCollection.

Took a bit of digging, but I knew I remembered this question before:
http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CDMQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fmatplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com%2F2D-Quiver-in-Axes3D-td27944.html&ei=Pwk5UfGdLufv0QHuroD4BA&usg=AFQjCNEqlWv2vY5l2IPcje-g6B0U21wDNw&bvm=bv.43287494,d.dmQ
And the feature request is here:
https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/issues/1026
In the thread I pointed out a bug that I encountered. I really hope I
get some free time soon so that I can work on the various feature
requests in mplot3d.
Cheers!
