Idea 1: A tool that downloads the image, rotates it and uploads it either under the username of the one who called it or by its own username.
Idea 2: A bot which does that. You can call the bot by {{rotate|right}} or {{rotate|left}}
Idea 3: Do it within MediaWiki. We use [[ImageMagick]] for generating thumbnails of images, but it can do many other things too, including rotating images. It would certainly be possible to set up an interface to do this. It would be one of the more resource intensive types of requests though, so the devs might have something to say about such a scheme.
or maybe something like `jhead -autorot *` - it fixes rotation according to EXIF data in JPEG files (very nice tool for working with photos from cameras that are not enough clever to rotate them, but wise enough to mark they aren't ;)
