Something like 'Support pin swapping' would be more useful.

Which pins are/can be inversed only RX/TX or also CTS/RTS? If both pairs can be
inversed individually it would be nice to support that.

As Bjorn commented, it's probably better to have boolean properties and keep the
magic values in the driver.
