Kornel suggests:

"""
Since specific, locked screen orientation is mostly needed in games, and  
forced rotation is disruptive to other things on the screen (e.g. moving  
buttons/addressbar to other physical edge of the screen), maybe it should  
be tied to the Fullscreen API?

    element.requestFullscreen({orientation:'landscape',  
autorotation:false})
"""

Seems compelling. What do people think?
