Flip up NightVision Goggles

Is it possible we could see a future design of oculus rift using a flip up night vision goggle style hinge? Right now I usually take off my glasses between games as I dont want them to touch my forehead and get natural oils on the lenses... or any other issues... if u could just flip them up it would be amazingly easy to leave them on :-)

Also to keep them secure when down or up... u could add a small magnetic system to ensure they stay in the appropriate possition.

    No, because you have magnetometers and magnetic trackers nearby.

    I hope, mainly for dev reasons, any future rift is able to 'flip up' rather than have to remove completely, probably with a harder head mount (instead of just straps)
