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.
