I'm now using 0.9.2-final and the problem is still there.

raw files usually have an embedded jpg "thumbnail", I guess this is used in digikam to show an image for a raw file, it may be usuful to have the thumbnail show up right side up, which may be determined from the stored exif info or it might be set manually. 

The problem is really that the right-mousebutton menu shows the option to rotate, but when this is used, an error occurs, since a raw file can't be rotated. So the solution to this bug is either not show the rotate option (or grey it) for raw images, or change the option to say "rotate thumbnail" for raw files and then store a rotation offset with the image metadata.

Cheers

Simon
