if I understand your setup correctly, you're dealing with a linear transform
(from a plane in UV-space to a plane in world space), so the partial 
derivatives with respect to u and v are constants across the triangle.

If this is not too much setup overhead, you could proceed by finding the world
space directions U and V corresponding to the u/v axes for the triangle
by solving for a 3x2 matrix with the world-space-directions U and V as
columns:

matrix(U V) * (A-B) = A.worldpos - B.worldpos
matrix(U V) * (B-C) = B.worldpos - C.worldpos

where A, B are 2D u/v coordinates (in pixel units). 

cheers,

	Manuel
