Most grid keyboards like planck and preonic have USB cables located on top which is a big obstacle working with laptops resulting you to push the screen further away. Rotating the keyboard 180 degrees clears the wire obstacle allowing the keyboard to touch the laptop for more stable support. I have successfully rotated the keyboard by editing the layout map and typing experience is much better actually. A rotation define statement will allow this feature much quicker.

That's a novel use for subset mapping! I guess a right angled cable would almost but not quite do the same thing. I can add this but it needs to be added to the subset mapping, so per keyboard or layout. Where would you use it now? LAYOUT_ortho_4x12?

The right angled cable is just a partial solution because wire still exists which doesn't allow me to push the keyboard against the laptop for more stable typing.
The keyboard I'm using now is 4x10 pabile/p40_ortho
Thank you.

This is in a temporary branch for now but you can use that branch directly or cherry pick the commit. It'll be added to the main branch later.
