Hi,

the rotate90 routines could need a little optimization, but to do so, we'd 
have to move them into the core (they are performed in a plug-in now). This 
will probably happen in the next development cycle, but not before 1.2.


Salut, Sven

They are two completely different things.  Try each operation on some
text.
