Stick it over the opposite site from the shutter switch and you could
have interchangeable viewfinders as well.

For the S-1 (let's fantasize) we get a raisable RTF on the left hand
side of the top (looking down) over the control wheel.  The viewfinder
is interchangeable and has no hot shoe.  On the right, the shutter
control, other control wheel and hot shoe, just like a PZ-1p.

The has the advantage of taking *both* flashes off centre.  

Or you could just build it into the shoulder of the body like those
Fuji instant cameras.  It wouldn't need to pop up then, so you could
have your af assist beam all the time with having the flash pop up.
