no dbus signals needed. when x rotates,you'll get a configurenotify on root AND
an XRRScreenChangeNotifyEvent event (on root). These will also tell you your
orientation and new size. The WM, if smart, will resize your app window anyway,
so all you really need to do is, on resize, query x for the orientation, if
orientation matters. if it doesn't just adjusting to the new size is what you
should be doing anyway.
