%%%When exporting a stl file the normal direction is not included. This is a known issue the author knows about, but he asked for someone to submit a bug report if anyone needs this functionality. This would help me out a lot. Thanks.%%%

I created a patch: http://bpaste.net/show/PJmBfHMz785lMvUbOTrn/
This will calculate face normals when the STL file gets written.

@donfabio could you make this optional like it is for OBJ?
OK. I made the normal export optional. I also tested it and seams to work fine.
