I believe that's called "portrait mode" and these days it's not so much "weird" 
as just uncommon … except in tablets where people are flipping screens around 
from portrait to landscape and back to portrait again with pretty wild abandon. 
Probably a good idea for NetBSD to support that mode of video operation.
