Does this exist: a monitor with the port on the outside, in the stand?

As per the title :)
When looking at some building plans, I saw a port that was quite long and had to be folded to fit in the speaker.
It would be easier to mount it outside, but a speaker with a chimney would be ugly.
Hiding it in the stand would solve that.
I was wondering if there are (diy or commercial) examples, of monitors where the port is an integral part of the stand.
Imho it has a few advantages: the speaker volume is lower (smaller enclosure), and during tuning the port is accessible from the outside.
My search failed to show any, which most likely means I oversaw the disadvantages...

Squadra - As soon as you decide to use a stand, what's stopping you from making the entire speaker floor-standing and be the same size as the monitor+stand? (That is a philosophical question, not a criticism in any way...)

Mr. Joplin, this?
