What is needed to rotate box plots?

Based on

• https://leeoniya.github.io/uPlot/demos/scales-dir-ori.html
• https://leeoniya.github.io/uPlot/demos/multi-bars.html

I assumed that I could possibly try to flip the x and y axis for box plots (https://leeoniya.github.io/uPlot/demos/box-whisker.html).
Though, a quick hack doesn't seem to do the trick.

Looking a bit more at the code of the demo, it seems like I would also need to flip the logic in the drawing routines.

Though, the interactive bits of the plots seem all very "column"-oriented.
Should I be aware of any implicit assumptions that box plots are "columns"?
Or should rotating/flipping axis "just work"?

At the end, I'd like reach a point where I have box plots like this:

I'd like to flip the axis mostly to make long performance reports more compact horizontally, to get loads of benchmarks on a relatively compact page. Full example: https://rebench.stefan-marr.de/TruffleSOM/compare/b953d3244f41878a1730350618a22afd595d5ba2..65141f9d66669a21cce28a5141f01b07b0f8a93f (this is currently generated with R+ggplot)

The other bit that I'd still need to figure out is how to draw the data points on top of the box, which is quite useful to me. But that's for another time.

Thanks!

Start by comparing the box-whisker demo with the scales-direction and multi-bars demos linked in the issue, focusing on the drawing and interactive logic. Determine which assumptions are column-oriented and whether axis flipping can support the requested horizontal box plots. Done means rotated box plots render correctly for compact performance reports; overlaying data points is explicitly deferred.
