Horizontal & Vertical workaround?

Hi all. Can anyone tell me if this is a dumb idea or not?

I've got a 15.75hz arcade monitor (horizontal). I'm wrestling with the
whole drama of horizontal vs vertical games. I can run 240 lines quite
nicely that fill the screen. I can also run 288 lines nicely, but I have
to adjust the physical monitor vsize down to get them all on the screen. I
tried to find a software config that will allow me to have both 240 and
288 onscreen at once and fill the screen, but no joy.

What I'm thinking about doing is building a little circuit that will flip
the monitor vsize control between two configurations, and driving that
switch  off a keyboard led. Then I can script the switch in advmame for
vertical games vs horizontal.

Any thoughts or suggestions?
