FWIW, I found the height parameter you can specify inside the Oculus software (I set it up along with the Touch Controllers and that requires standing) not working optimally when sitting at the desktop and changed that to 140 cm. Now the software might think I'm a Kender, but my initial position is much better now. Ingame, I use both the Oculus controller reorient option (on the right side of the VR menu) and the ED headset orientation key (actually, I put that on a Voice Attack command), whatever fits me best (the latter one unfortunately doesn't work when docked). I do recenters rather frequently, as my position at the desk changes over time during longer sessions.
