Use Sensor API to automatically detect orientation
... or equivalent. Research to do:
https://web.dev/generic-sensor/ https://w3c.github.io/gyroscope/#gyroscope-interface https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/AbsoluteOrientationSensor#permissions_example https://caniuse.com/?search=sensor%20api
A quick test shows that AbsoluteOrientationSensor does not exist on a Macbook Pro. I may be the only human on the planet that reads comics on a laptop in portrait mode, but I'd still want to support this feature on desktop, if possible.

Chrome doesn't surface this on a Macbook Pro. I have one question out there so far:
