We need a system wide Travel Mode / Orientation option
The same way Netflix will auto adjust orientation in a moving car, we need a system wide Travel Mode. I frequently use my Go on the plane and only the Netflix app lets me comfortably watch media the entire flight.
It is also frustrating that almost every app has its own button mapping for reorientation. (Hulu ignores the Oculus Button 'long hold' that would allow you to reorient the content vertically, instead requiring a clumsy trigger pull gesture)

Plus 1 Ryan,
Due to a car wreck, my neck was broken in 3 places, I now have a chunk of steel that causes me problems. I use my Go most every night when I go to bed, so laying back (even propped up by pillows) I have to sit up to sign in. YouTube will let me drag it up after it's opened and other apps, like NetFlix and AmazonVR will not let me move them until a video is starting. The majority of apps, the horizon can not be changed at all. I think most people would appreciate the default horizon being set where-ever the headset is pointed, then have the ability to change it for certain apps.
