It might have been better to have a policy to grandfather in old images. So if an image was uploaded prior to the introduction of automatic EXIF rotation, it wouldn't be auto-rotated. But at this point where it's a bit mixed up, I'm not sure how to fix the situation with older images.
EXIF rotation should be the default for any new images, however.
Perhaps we need a button which can do rotation in the same way as submitting a modified wiki article.

Well, it looks like automatic image rotation is not as good an idea as Brion and I originally thought. Do people think we should remove the auto-rotation (i.e. set $wgEnableAutoRotation = false) until we have something in MediaWiki to rotate images?
