As far as I know some high end cameras with an integrated GPS receiver have
also a built-in compass, so they also "know" the direction at which a photo is
taken, and can save this information in the photo's metadata.

Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:  
Currently you can open a photo in the geo editor (map) to see and/or edit the
location where the photo was taken. A great feature would be to be able to do
another click into the map to define the direction at which the photo was
taken.

A quick Google search yields there are EXIF tags called
GPSDestLatitude/GPSDestLongitude, or GPSDestBearing, which can store this
information.
