Isn't that the responsibility of RandR?
Personally I'd rather have a global tool (KRandR or some other "rotate 
Activity" tool) 
that to rotate Plasmoids individually.

Sounds more like a hidden option.

I wondered about that option for a longer time. I never used it and I never 
found it 
useful. Today I once again stumbled over a forum post by someone who wondered 
why that 
"useless" option is present anyway.

Personally, I'm slightly against it but not with my full heart. What I found 
interesting 
is the idea by someone in this thread to add a context sensitive button. With 
images, 
rotation seems somewhat useful. A transparency slider might be somewhat useful 
for other 
widgets...
