yes it seems that jitter support uvmap... this discution is similar to 
my concern now with gem ... :

would be great !

I have looked at the code earlier and I think that the 
"model_loader.cpp" file is parsing the .obj file for texture coordinate 
(vt lines), but it seems that the "model.cpp" do not make a call to 
these datas, only permit the choice between linear or spherical 
coordinate ...

can't say more, I'm not coder, just a lame artist fiddling with 
applications ... :)
