I've now tested
master~2013-04-23_04.48.50_LibreOfficeDev_4.1.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86.msi<http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/Win-x86@6/current/master~2013-04-23_04.48.50_LibreOfficeDev_4.1.0.0.alpha0_Win_x86.msi>
on
my Win 7 here and it works beautifully in the following cases:

1. Imported JPG rotates left/right
2. Imported PNG rotates left/right
3. Imported JPG rotates left/right

Now, when I simply paste in a screenshot, the command for rotating the
images is simply not available "Manage Graphic --> <No selection
possible>".
However, after saving the document and then restarting Writer, it's again
possible to select left/right rotation on the pasted images from the
context menu again.

Thanks for the good work so far.

I suggest button icons for left/right rotation ends up in the "Picture"
toolbar, right next to the flip horizontally / flip vertically button
icons. I think there are some nice icons in the Tango icon set.
Furthermore, in the cases where left/right rotation is not supported due to
the file format, I propose you simply gray out the buttons and put some
kind of tooltip which states something like "Rotation is supported for GIF,
JPG and PNG images".

Thanks again!

Title:
  [Upstream] Wishlist: Add rotation of images to writer

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  In Progress
Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:
  Unknown
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  Currently when a picture is imported, it is impossible to rotate it.
  This makes the task of importing images/graphs into OpenOffice
  unneccessarily difficult and complex. Since OpenOffice already has a
  gazillion of options about images, it's quite amazing that it cannot
  rotate them.

  WORKAROUND: Use WriterRotationTool
  http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/project/WriterRotationTool .
