I beg to differ. If the typewriter functionality is provided for a view-rotated
PDF, then it should honour such rotation. If using the typewriter tool on a
view-rotated PDF is not expected to create a properly rotated annotation, then
what else it is supposed to do on a view-rotated PDF? The current state does
not allow any useful operation with the typewriter tool on a view-rotated PDF. 
Thus, I think that the bug is either in allowing the typewriter tool at all for
a rotated view, or in creating an unexpected outcome when using it on a
view-rotated PDF. I would vouch for the second interpretation because that is
more useful from a user's point of view; I provided a usecase in the OP.

That being said, the resolution for the other interpretation is to forbid use
of the typewriter tool on a view-rotated PDF. In that case, I would refile this
ticket a feature request.
