I haven't yet had the time or a loaner Model-S to reverse engineer the Supercharger protocol, which is needed to build a CHAdeMO to S converter. If anyone in the Bay Area wants to loan me their S to take a trip to the Folsom Supercharger, that would be very helpful!
Yes, there are some awfully expensive connectors involved, though it does look like it might be possible to use one off a UMC for the S side. Tesla also will sell one in the form of a Roadster HPC adapter. Unfortunately the CHAdeMO inlet is pricey.
It's correct that there would be no need for power conversion, and most CHAdeMO stations can handle about 50kW.
