Indicator of...? (just in case: it is actually that hard to tell the applet is being rotated by looking at it?)

> You want the handles to not be rotated, 

Yes, handles + border. It serves no purpose and misinforms the users (compare it to for example Gimp, only what is rotated is being rotated, quite natural).

Bad analogy. I can rotate applet, or image in gimp, several times around without realeasing the grip. And screwdriver is that much rotated as the screw (all the time), so you are comparing two completely different models.
