Play E:D laying down

Currently, it isn't possible to play E:D laying down unless you run Windows 10 and play the game through Bigscreen Beta/virtual desktop, which comes with a performance cost. Why would I want to lay down? Well, eventually one's bed is more comfortable than their chair, and the human wrist allows a HOTAS to still be fully functional when at a a 90 degree angle from normal.

Within your engine, all you really need to do is swap the Y and Z axes when you go to render the game area. If you want to over-achieve, you can put in a 'tilt' feature, similar to what Whirligig has. Please Frontier, make this VR spacer happy and let me play while laying in my bed. Then I can turn on the debug camera and truly be looking at the stars.
 
Why should it not be possible? I'd imagine looking up and centering would be enough to lead to up being forward etc.
