Just an idea, you are boss here: Maybe what Mediawiki really should do with
rotation is ask the uploading user - if there is any rotation EXIF - whether to
turn the image or not? That could easily be standard conformant and work with
user expectations in the case "frequently misformatted EXIF" should exist.

Does the second example also have malformed EXIF data?
