It is, we have a sort-of working WIP for it, with the help of a private protocol [1]. With that there's also a simple client that can request an output rotation, interactively, as well as using an accelerometer that detects an orientation change and uses that protocol to signal it. More details could be find at [2]. Note, that is still need of a polish, but should work with regular wayland clients.
