So far only Pentax cameras IBIS can freely move a senzor (for whatever reason..)

In fact with some of the Pentax cameras (including the K-1) it is also possible to shift the sensor manually with IBIS in live view very much in line with the aim of the original question. Tilting the sensor is not possible. You get any lens to be a (limited) shift lens.

The functionality is called there "Composition Adjustment".

The Composition Adjustment function** allows you to make minute adjustment of image composition with a shift of the image sensor. It comes in handy for Live View shooting using a tripod.

** Maximum compensation range: ±1.5mm (±1mm along the axis of rotation) or ±1°

You can see it in action on youtube for example:

Hope it helps.
