Overdraft

I'd like to cleat my out haul on the boat so I can actually adjust it during the race... Now, the rulebook says I can have any type of mainsheet cleat I want mounted in the indicated area and also that I can attach the free end of my outhaul to 'any deck fitting'... So, if I install a 'mainsheet' cleat within the prescribed area, but facing forward, and then 'attach' the free end of my outhaul to it, am I offside? I believe I comply with the letter of the rule, but what do you guys think?
