Yes for goalup the goal is always vertically above your glider on the screen.
But if you fly cross track then the screen will obviously rotate. This effect increases as you approach your goal. It can be annoying for at the last few Km. So having it change automatically to NorthUp or TrackUp as the glider crosses the "near" distance can be a good idea. Also put a bit of histeresis into the "near" value. I would like to suggest a new mode called LastUp. When the glider crosses the near distance to a turnpoint, the current orientation is preserved until a new turnpoint is (automatically) selected. This avoids the screen orientation hopping at a critical moment in the flight. Note this is all while on task.
