Swipe actions should always follow phone actual orientation

At the moment it is very confusing how the "close" / "to the background" and "notifications" swipes work. As in some apps that rotate to landscape also the swiping orientation rotates, in others, swiping stays in portrait orientation, despite the app beeing in landscape.

Therefore my reguest is to fix swipe orientation always to match the actual phone orientation - this is the only way to avoid unwanted swiping action results.

Edit: Not sure if this one should be called "enhancement", "feature-request" or even a bug - After a longer while, it's becoming more and more annoying to remomber which apps close from side, which ones from top when using them in landscape. Let's vote and fix this!
