Hardware-SPI libs for TFT displays as a substitute for UTFT?

would it be possible to add Hardware-SPI libs for TFT displays, working also with the Due ?
I'm using Henning Karlsen UTFT libs so far, but unfortunately they don't work on the SPI-Header simultaneously with Hardware-SPI device libs, e.g. < SD.h>.

E.g., without a SD card on the bus I can even configure and assign the SPI pins (on Mega: 50-52, on Due: 74-76) but as soon as I'm adding a SD card to the bus the TFT don't work any more (by having different CS pins of course, e.g., CS_SD=38, CS_TFT=49 or what ever).

So I always have to use extra different MISO and SCK pins for TFT and SD which finally wastes pins unnecessarily.

ps,
this is one of the TFT displays which actually don't work with additional hardware SPI devices on the SPI header:
