That makes rotating images very clumsy though, one wants to rotate the
thumbnail while looking at that view.  Also I can't find a Rotate in
the Image menu, what's there is the "Correct Exif Orientation Tag",
the Rotate is only in the Transform menu of the Image Editor.

So, to rotate an image one has to open it up in the Image Editor and
then rotate it there.  The documentation says there's an easier way by
right clicking on the thumbnail, are you really saying this has been
removed?
