Just reproduced on arale too.

Steps to reproduce (actually something I do regularly):
  1. Open Settings
  2. With your right hand put the phone down on the desk to your far right.

In doing so, you will often find you're tilting it slightly to the left,
which makes the phone enter landscape mode. However because it doesn't
respond the the rotation immediately, it appears to be rotating itself
the moment you've put the phone down.

So it's a simple matter of we're not thresholding the accelerometer
adequately -- we're too sensitive to brief tilting.

** Changed in: unity8 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

** Summary changed:

- [mako] Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk
+ Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk

** Summary changed:

- Screen rotates itself to landscape when the phone is laying on the desk
+ Unity8 is over-sensitive to brief (accidental) tilting, making the screen 
rotate when you don't want it to.
