Hey Andrew,
I've setup a system where we baked out P to maps, then used cops to
calculate the surface derivatives. Should also work with uvs. There's a
derivative vop that wraps up easily into a cop node.
Someone might have a better idea that doesn't involve baking though...
I'd be keen to hear it!
Cheers,
