Hello Lucas,

This is a longstanding debate between people that apply llgal right
after downloading from the camera, and people who cleanup/rotate/resize
their images before giving them to llgal. The former want an option for
autorotating so that a single step does everything (except
sorting/selecting images). The latter say that autorotating in llgal
would open the gate to many image modification options requests, that
llgal is not meant to do this, and that exiftran -ai can do the job
anyway. So I never took time to actually look at the details. convert
has an -auto-orient option that could help here. You'd just need to
change the convert command-lines in the config file. But that wouldn't
apply to the original images, only to thumbnails and scaled images.
