Does anyone make a telescope of the opposite design, with a
large flat steering mirror tilted at 45 degrees that directs light to
an equal aperture parabolic mirror? The focused image would then go
through a hole in the steering mirror to an eyepiece, or maybe to an
erecting lens and then the eyepiece.

Check out the "Springfield mount" in ATM volume 1. I don't know of a
current manufacturer though.
