it has been worked around by some scripts ...
nontheless it should be properly fixed in gnome-settings-daemon instead,
closing the nexus7 task but leaving g-s-d open....
ubuntu-defaults-nexus7 (0.41) raring; urgency=low
* add acceld.conf upstart job, acceld binary to /usr/bin
and 95-acceld_start XSession.d file this enables auto-rotation of
the screen. it can be disabled by editing /etc/default/acceld

Title:
physical rotation doesn't rotate screen and input automatically
Status in Ubuntu on the Nexus 7:
Fix Released
Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
Triaged
Bug description:
Once Bug# 1092952 is solved and we are able to listen for rotate
events from the kernel, then we need to hook this signal in with the
gnome-settings-daemon code that tracks rotation status and performs
the xinput and xrandr rotation events.
Bryce has written an xrotate script that maybe we could attach to the
rotation events, but in theory we shouldn't need it.
Bryce adds, "Theoretically there should be code in gnome-settings-
daemon (or gnome-desktop) which listens for xrandr events and rotates
the input. So when we have proper handling of the sensor we can hook
that to the gtk events and let g-s-d rotate the input, and then
xrotate simply becomes a debugging tool."
