Tulip Hood on 18-55?

Is a tulip style hood viable for the kit 18-55 lens? Since the lens barrel rotates for focusing doesn't this guarantee that the incised corners of the tulip will usually be out of proper orientation?

Also, screwing anything onto the front of that delicate and wobbly lens barrel gives me the willies. Don't want to strip any little plastic gears inside it.
