Hi,

I have actually already a working solution for the most common use case
- 90 degree image rotation. The rotation is working on the image itself,
so it does not need a drawing layer rewrite (AOO guy are working on this
so we don't need to duplicate the effort). For jpeg images I use a
lossless rotation which does not degrade the image quality, for PNG and
GIF I just simple recompress the rotated image. Vector images are more
complicated and I have not found a solution yet - maybe at first I will
disable rotation for this types of images.

Additional to this I implemented metadata (Exif) extraction for JPEG -
this way I detect the orientation of the image. I have integrated this
into the import to automatically rotate the image (if the user wishes
so).

I will commit the changes during weekend into master so that others can
try it out.

@Cao Cuong Ngo: Can you please explain what kind of solution you had in
mind?

Regards, Tomaž
