Eh, if you have artificial gravity why would it matter and if the only force you're feeling is acceleration then you won't feel the inertia just the force of moving in your new direction. It might be easier on your brain to have your only motion appear to be forward but you wouldn't be thrown against the side of the ship if you turn 90 degrees.
