Yup.  There's a hook in the HID to tell the pad drawing routines what
angle to use, but I haven't done anything with it yet.  Note that this
is tied in with the "elements need to know what angle they are" design
change idea.

Right mouse already does rotation for me.

And you can only free-rotate the buffer, not anything under the
cursor.
