After spending lots of time with Point Clouds lately, making heaps of section boxes and then manually rotating them to match walls, I finally decided to shoutout to the Twitterverse for some help…
Following a several-days-long Twitter exchange, Harry Mattison has created a cool add-in and provided it for download at:

(also on Boost Your BIM product page)
And yes, it automatically rotates the Section Box!! Essentially, this produces a box that is “aligned” to the Wall. Conversely, the Coins version currently only produces aligned section boxes when you produce a section box around a scope box or around a section line.
