(as I wrote in COM:VP)

In case some people did not understand the severity (changed this bug to
"major") of our problem: 

Some discussion/info about popular M$ tools (e.g. "Microsoft Picture manager")
which do not care for EXIF rotation and also do not update it after rotating an
image. See: [[:en:Windows_Photo_Gallery#Bugs]],
[http://www.artslant.com/global/articles/show/11800 artslant.com],
[http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Picasa/thread?tid=76dd86d9b63dfed7&hl=en
picasa discusion],
[http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/ar/w7itproui/thread/58866b3d-0e14-4db8-b6d4-2ee871303da2
technet.microsoft.com].

A user I spoke with in Commons did use MS photo manager since ever to rotate
images. That means: when the thumbnails of his old uploads get purged or a
thumb size which wasn't used before is used they all (also the old uploads)
will display wrongly rotated and are unusable until fixed.  If they are
currently in articles the article will contain a rotated image.
