I had a little chat with carsten about the possibility to fix not coplanar

I wouldn't bother too much.
I think it is an error if the four points of a quad do not lie in a plane.
Too bad that the LDraw format has a built-in possiblity of creating
degenerate quads.
POV e.g. uses 2D points to describe a polygon.

(Lars, how does L3P detect these not coplanar vertices?)
I released the L3P checking source code a couple of years ago for ldglite,
see L3Input.cpp in http://www.geocities.com/dheyse/

Eeek!  Don't go to the geocities site.  That's way out of date.
Go here:

  http://ldglite.sourceforge.net

Or here if you just want to browse the source code.

  http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/ldglite/ldglite/

Lars' code is in the files beginning with L3.
