maybe I am missing something, but surely it is no more complicated
than:
\begin{figure}
\begin{sideways}
\begin{tabular}{...}
...
\end{tabular}
\end{sideways}
\end{figure}
assuming your `sideways' environment takes its contents, and turns
them sideways, leaving appropriate TeX space with struts (easy to work
out with a 90 degree turn). I have done this many times, and it never
struck me as a problem.
