yeah, I was also wondering why it's working. I just did "xrandr -o left" and my display was rotated unexpectedly :) I have not yet checked what happens in that case.

Yes, rotating the TS coordinates is simpler than panel rotation, since much less information must be rotated. I just mentioned TS, since the _default_ orientation should be the same for both. In the end both must be rotated at the same time (and thus both must support rotation).
