BTG, you obviously haven't ever actually taken out OmniFire=yes from a chopper unit, have you?
That tag is in there in the first place because of a bug. The bug makes choppers NEVER turn around when given a direct fire order. So, that being said, taking out OmniFire=yes from a chopper would render it unable to attack, because it will almost never be able to perfectly line up with its target. This is far more than a simple matter of convenience.
That said, I believe he is requesting a way to force a chopper to change its facing when in an attack mission.
