It's no good, I can't stand it any longer ... does anyone know if they added a way to change the Up-Axis in Blender?

They added a way to use left mouse to select, which is great, but I'm still struggling with that idiotic Z-is-up arrangement.  Is there any way I can change it so that Y is the up axis and the colours of the axis are as follows :

RED=X
GREEN=Y
BLUE=Z

It might not sound like a biggie, but I just cannot get used to the way they have it as default.  It's completely wrong cause in 2D X is always horizontal and Y is always vertical.  Add a third axis to that and you get Z, which should be lateral, not vertical. Vertical was taken by Y long before 3D programs even existed.  The colouring should follow the default RGB too, meaning RGB = XYZ, not RGB=XZY (it even sounds backward).  FFFFFFFFF ... I cannot tell you how irritating it is to have to deal with that all the time, it slows me down like you would not believe, it's so bloody ridiculously I cannot find a word suitable for it.  iClone works like that too.  I don't know where they get these ideas from, it's totally backward, seriously frustrating and clearly wrong.

It's the biggest pain in the arse I face every time I use iClone and it's an even bigger pain in the arse using Blender due to it being a modeler.  I'd enjoy learning it so much better if I wasn't constantly struggling with this idiotic crap every freaking time I move something.  If anyone knows how to change it, pleeeeeeeeease tell me before I go completely insane!
