The game example in the bug description is solved by adding X-Ubuntu-
An application might want to be locked to portrait while showing the
main menu, but allow rotating while displaying some certain content. For

What Gerry is talking about - afaik - is the one apps should specify in
the desktop file, which is about to land in Vivid. However, the feature
Michael is talking about is more runtime one, for which we do not have
API yet to connect to.
