@Tomaž Vajngerl: Fantastic work! The rotate left/right arrows are very
easy to find, right next to the flip buttons.

I've tested image rotation in Win 8 using this build.

master~2013-05-13_01.26.32_LibreOfficeDev_4.1.0.0.alpha1_Win_x86.msi   
Version: 4.1.0.0.alpha1+
Build ID: c0417e82174297ace604c68fc577c831929f357
----------

Works well:
1. Rotating left/right works very well with all 4 anchor types and wrap types.
2. Setting grayscale/black and white/watermark works well without interference.
3. Tweaking colors works without trouble.
4. Transparency works.

Workarounds needed:
1. Pasting an image requires saving and reloading the .odt-file to enable the 
buttons and allow any rotation.
2. Using any of the graphic filters also instantly disables the rotate-button 
and the file needs saving and reloading before the buttons are enabled again. 
3. Vertical or horizontal flipping is instantly reset when any of the rotate 
buttons are pressed. (Minor)

I'll test this more on Linux Mint 14 later...

Thanks again!

Even with these workarounds, I consider the feature complete enough to pay out 
the reward. Image rotation reward on FreedomSponsors.org has hereby been upped 
to $40 and paid in full.

Title:
  [Upstream] Wishlist: Add rotation of images to writer

Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite:
  In Progress
Status in The OpenOffice.org Suite:
  Unknown
Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix
Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: openoffice.org

  Currently when a picture is imported, it is impossible to rotate it.
  This makes the task of importing images/graphs into OpenOffice
  unneccessarily difficult and complex. Since OpenOffice already has a
  gazillion of options about images, it's quite amazing that it cannot
  rotate them.

  WORKAROUND: Use WriterRotationTool
