Has anyone created any isometric projections for D3? I'm specifically thinking of things like Kartograph's tilted satellite projection:

But really, any kind of isometric is fine. I've been playing with orthographic and trying to set the origin away from what I'm zooming in on, but it's having odd behavior, so maybe there's a better way to go about this?

Here's a suggestion. Instead of trying to get to isometric projection through D3, you could use a Mercator projection for the map and then skew and rotate the whole map using CSS3 transform to achieve "kind of isometric" view.

There was this one satellite projection example:
