Hi Bjorn,
You can rotate your map in the composer only. First, add a map to your
layout. After selecting it you can edit the rotation value in the tab
"Item properties".
I don't know when this feature was added, but it has been in QGIS master
for a while.
Good luck!

Hej,
I am slowly trying to move away from arcgis to open source software
like grass and qgis but there is one feature that I really like in
arcgis that I cant seem to find in QGIS in my transition. Simply
enough, i'd like to rotate all layers in the current rendered window
to say 90degrees relative to north as I map a feature (note I am not
talking about rotating the final map output as suggested here
http://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/54060/can-qgis-1-8-0-mac-rotate-the-entire-view-of-a-project).//I
use this feature quiet a lot in arcgis (data frame properties --
general -- rotation) to map especially elongated feature at a
resolution that otherwise won't fit on my screen and I assume that
there must be something equivalent in qgis that I have simply not noticed.
Cheers,
Bjorn
