Even better. Mount the H and C discs in the tap centres on pivots and weight
them, so that regardless of the position of the taphead the disc is always
correctly aligned with the letters upright. Don't Rolls do something similar
with their hub caps?


They do. But a Roller is £250K, and while these taps were expensive, they weren't
*that* expensive.


One could do the same with conventionally mounted taps...have a little
magnetised compass needle (on a movable bezel) inside each one...
