GPS Rescue Landing Heading Matching Take Off #15053

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

No problem, everything works, I'm just hoping for something small (hopefully) to make it better.

Describe the solution you'd like

I purchased a second hand 9" longrange, and it came with iNav. I explored this as far as I could go, but found there is no place like home, well done Betaflight devs.

One thing I noticed with iNav's return to home, is at the home point the quad would spin around to face the same heading it took off. This is ideal for assisting it down without googles (let assume video failure was the return reason).

Is it possible to have Betaflight complete the same thing. Come to home point at the altitude, turn to face the take off heading, and then proceed to complete it's landing process?

Describe alternatives you've considered

I've looked for options in the GUI, in case it's a choice, but I can't find it. I've also done a quick search here for "GPS Heading" and not found anyone talking about it already.

I'm okay with line of sight, until the quad is facing me. With position hold I can work out and adjust it's heading, and then proceed to land, sometimes in the small area in which I took off from.

Other information

Thank you
