I explored the idea of general purpose driver that would do that. You should
have mentioned how good Tetris would it make if you hold the device upside
down ;-)

Anyway, I was unable to do that...DragonBall does not support such feautures
and although it seems possible via some fine changes I was unable to make
these.

To answer your question I think it is impossible to do that via the API.
