That is very good addition and I even know where I will use this new
functionality. I am +1 on it and only two notes to add:

1. SetAxes() should care of Z axis too. It can be overloaded in C++ part
   of API and have two variants in C bindings (e.g. SetAxes()
   SetAxesZ()).
2. Orientation and axis names should be enumerations instead of plain
   integers.

Best regards,
Andrey
