I am not sure if this is related to the original question
but I have seen a few requests from users with multiple
screens who want the top to bottom rotation (rather
than left-right).

I assume it is because it will feel more natural when you
have two (or more) screens next to each other rather than
above one and other.

This post probably explains it better
