Finally got around trying this. It works...more or less.
If I start from
<fo:block-container id='totransform' height="100.0pt" width="100.0pt"
overflow="hidden" background-color="rgb(0,0,255)"
position="absolute" top="30pt" left="30pt" >
<fo:block linefeed-treatment="ignore" white-space-treatment="ignore"
white-space-collapse="true"
color="cmyk(0,0,1,0)" font-size="8pt" background-color="rgb(0,0,0)"
>jaja
</fo:block>
</fo:block-container>
and change the ctm as in
<block ipd="100000" bpd="100000"
ipda="100000" bpda="100000" bap="0 0 0 0"
prod-id="totransform" is-viewport-area="true"
background="color=#0000ff"
bkg-color="java.awt.Color[r=0,g=0,b=255]"
left-position="30000" top-position="30000"
ctm="[0.7071 0.7071 -0.7071 0.7071 30000.0 30000.0]"
clipped="true" positioning="absolute">
This does not rotate the 'background' of the block-container, but only its'
'content'.

Would anyone have any thoughts?
Thanks,
