Edge Blend constant radius, vs taper on a drafted surface

$

Please see attached part, 

 

I have a simple square part, I want to add draft to the part.  I also want the corners to have edge blends on them.

 

If I add  fillets (edge curves) in the sketch, and extrude with draft these fillets will become a taper with a centerline that is perpendicular to the top surface. Red surface

 

Now if I extrude the part with with just a simple square and draft, then add the fillets afterwards, the fillet will be a constant radius, and the centerline of this fillet will be parrellel with the draft. Green surface

 

Is there a way that I can control the centerline of an edge blend, to say keep perpendicular to the top surface?

 

I could probably estimate with a varaible fillet.  My real world example is not a square,   So it makes things a little bit more fun.
