Hi Guillaume,
This problem is definitely solveable by scripting.
Simply write a script to place planes or something similar along each
hair of a hair system with a scripted operator and make sure that the
reference hair has no render visibility. Reading the normal information
at the vert that emits the hair, along with the emitter object transform
should give you enough information about orientation to do what you need.
Even easier, you can constrain object to clusters on hair, and since
this only defines their position, the orientation could be gathered in
any way you wanted to.
cheers,
Luke

Hello i try to make some feather with the hair simulation of XSi.
In the Hair simulation of XSI each Hair orientation's are link to
the camera.
When i turn around my model the hair are always face to the camera.
Someone know how desactivate or break the link between the hair
orientation's and the camera position?
Cheers
