An object with an uneven mass distribution might have something in a nonequatorial orbit; say, if there had been a recent Big Whack collision between a very dense body and a very rapidly spinning planet, and the dense core from the impactor was still not yet fully sunk into the planet's (former) center of mass; the orbit would be skewed slightly towards the dense core. I think.
