My suggestion is an Inserter that could take items and place them at at a 90 degree angle.



This idea would require a clockwise and counter-clockwise version.

Clockwise Inserter (Pointing Right):
- Can take from the Top and insert to the Right.
- (Rotate) Can take from the Left and insert to the Bottom.
- (Rotatex2) Can take from the Bottom and insert to the Left.
- (Rotatex3) Can take from the Left and insert to the Top.

Counter-clockwise Inserter (Pointing Left):
- Can take from the Top and insert to the Left.
- (Rotate) Can take from the Right and insert to the Top.
- (Rotatex2) Can take from the Bottom and insert to the Right.
- (Rotatex3) Can take from the Left and insert to the Bottom.

It has been talked about in "more flexible inserters" FYI

[necro] Kovarex said it himself, won't implement.
