I don't think this is much of an issue. Hot air rises (because it is less dense). That doesn't mean that heat rises in general. A heat sink physically connected to heat-generating electrical parts will absorb heat no matter which side it's connected to.
Another consideration - with DrKnow's overpowered set-ups, his trucks may spend as much time on their lids as upright - negating the effect of how the esc is oriented.
