Swap Axes of Violin plot

I am trying to create Violin Plots using the StatsPlots.jl library. However, I would like to have the returned Violin plot to be horizontal instead of vertical as I want to show the distribution of a variable (e.g. Temperature) for different heights, eg. at 1000m, 2000m, 3000m ...

So it would be nice if the height was at the y-Axis while the temperature distribution was on the x-Axis. Is there a way to swap the axes of a Plots.Plot struct, or is there an argument I could pass to violin() that does the trick?

It seems the permute keyword is documented for other plots (see Plots API) and it works for me with violin (StatsPlots v0.15.7). Here's the syntax:

violin(
       repeat([1,2,3], outer=100),
       randn(300),
       permute = (:y, :x)
)
