I've never heard of such a thing. However my intuitive side tends to think it is plausible that isomerization might be independent of gravity. Personally I would theorize that sustained high temperature (boiling) is more important than gravity of the medium. Solubility might come into play at the 90-100 IBU speed of light type limit, e.g., if adding a buttload of hops to a concentrated boil, you can only get so much IBUs, which then when diluted with more water will tend to reduce the total IBUs. So there's likely some effects at very high IBUs with concentrated boil later diluted. But for any reasonable hopping levels of non-IPA, non-RIS, etc. without subsequent dilution, I wouldn't think the effect significant.
Just thinking out loud. No, I don't have any objective evidence at this time to support my intuitive hypotheses.
