In theory this is a fine idea. But keep in mind one point that noone
ever adresses in this whole discussion: The treatment of FOV in hugin
is, if I am interpreting the mechanism right, fundamentally flawed.
The only thing that is asked for and processed seems to be the
HORIZONTAL field of view. Now if I make images with an APSC sensor
and, in landscape mode, have a HFOV of 60 degrees, then do some shots
in portrait, suddenly the HFOV is 40 degrees.

It doesn't really work like this. Hugin looks exclusively at the image dimensions, so both the landscape and portrait shots will have the same lens number and field of view.

If you have actually rotated the pixels of one photo in an image editor then Hugin will see two different lens numbers and field of views, but the field of view will be 'correct' and doesn't need to be changed to get a good stitch.
