Could this work?

I believe at each pass, the ISS is crossing the sky in a smooth arc, similar to the stars. Just around a different axis. So shouldn't it be possible to align the mount with that axis to easily track the ISS manually without having to rapidly adjust altitude and azimuth simultaneously?
