Well, one place it could be done is on the Sega->WG interface board. If a
particular bit is set, X and Y inputs are swapped (and inverted if
appropriate...I've forgotten the orientation of Sega stuff). Heck, use a PIC

I imagine it would be non-trivial to hack the Tac/Scan code to accomplish the
same thing.
