Acer Aspire Switch Alpha 12 on Bionic - screen and finger-touch rotate fine, stylus does not

I have a MS Surface-esque Aspire Switch (Core i3) running 18.04 amd64, fully updated (initially installed from the development branch and working great). All the hardware works out of the box and I'm very impressed. One quirk is that, while the accelerometer works as intended, it rotates the display and the finger-touch input, but falls short of the Active Stylus. The stylus itself works perfectly on standard landscape mode.
I can't find much information on the hardware behind it, but I've found that the digitizer is manufactured by ELAN and is I2C. I determined the input device from xinput and successfully used a command based on this script: https://gist.github.com/mildmojo/48e9025070a2ba40795c to manually rotate the pen input. I would be happy with somehow hooking into the automatic screen rotation, which as best I understand is handled by IIO, but I have no idea what to do with it. Is there a simple way to enable rotation of the digitizer?
