Concerning screen orientation: no, the programmer does not set this.
Why would he? The phone sets it, based on what it thinks the
orientation is, based on accelerometer and/or keyboard slide.

My G1, for example, will usually switch orientation correctly based on
how I am holding the phone. But sometimes I have to slide the keyboard
out to force the switch.

In the emulator, you can choose orientation by hitting Ctl-F11. That
is the official command. I have to precede it with Ctl- F12 though. I
never did figure out why.
