The rail has to go up straight and level or the curtains will not hang properly.

Yes, if you put it up to match the wonky walls it will make it look a lot worse and as I said the curtains will not hang right.

I agree (also living in a slightly wonky house)

the curtains are the one thing you can guarantee will be exactly vertical and anything other than the pole being exactly horizontal will look very strange.
