Hello Scanpy team,
I was wondering should it be possible to rotate the gene symbols in the output of scanpy.pl.rank_genes_groups? I don't think anybody enjoys looking at them sideways :) I might be wrong of course... Maybe I'm missing something and you can swap axes in the sub-plots?
Thank you in advance.

Research direction
Start at the scanpy.pl.rank_genes_groups plotting entry point and inspect how gene-symbol labels are configured in its subplots. The work is done when the plot supports readable rotated gene labels, with the existing plotting behavior preserved when rotation is not requested.
