If you want the display-engine just jump over invisible windows, you
have to discuss that with someone familiar with the display code.

I don't know how you would rotate a configuration like
----------------
| | |
| | |
|------| |
| | |
| | |
----------------
and why people should want to do that. Or do you mean to rotate the
frame by 90 degrees?
I occasionally do flip the contents of two equally sized side-by-side
windows, for example, when diffing revisions. That's mainly because of
my way of reading things from left to right connotes the idea that
something in a left-hand window is older than something in a window on
the right. So while I agree that transposing two windows around a
common axis can be interesting, I have no use case for rotating windows.
