There are solutions to this that have been high priority since the beginning. My wife and I live with several of them. It hangs on a parking hook when not in use, which keep the strings out of the way, and if necessary they can be quickly disconnected with small carabiners. But your idea, if I understand it correctly, is a parked configuration where no line diagonally crosses the room. Seems doable but I question the tradeoff. An improvement in aesthetics for an increase in complexity. So far I don't think any of my customers care what it looks like. I initially thought they would, but I've been wrong so far.
