Rotation done in the Editor is not lossless as the editor works on pixels not on the jpeg files. When you open a file the Image Editor, it is uncompressed. Every modification will be done on this uncompressed data. This data will be compressed again if you save it back as a jpeg.

The lossless plugin is only available from the main window.

Perhaps a warning could be added in the image editor to tell the users that they should use the main interface to have lossless rotation when they select a 90/180/270 angle.

Just my 2 cents.
