No one likes a gun pointed at them whether it's just laying there on the table unloaded all by its lonesome or in someone's hand with one in the pipe. For those with any respect for guns at all it's just a bit unnerving.

I wonder how an officer in this situation would react if he were politely asked to sit in a different position so the gun were not pointed at someone. Anyone? Would that be a major breach of ethics?

I disagree. As Teamless pointed out, it is a blatant disregard for one of the cardinal rules of firearms safety protocol.
