            Bug ID: 517492
           Summary: user accidentally rotates widget, accessability
                    Rotating a widget is not common enough to warrant a
                    default rotation tool, not enough snap
    Classification: Plasma
           Product: plasmashell
      Version First 6.5.5
       Reported In:
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Widget Explorer sidebar

  Target Milestone: 1.0

It is really really cool to be able to rotate a widget, however, most widgets I
cannot conceive of wanting to rotate them.

If there is a standard widget features menu that has like background color and
things like that, angle of rotation seems like it would be a great field. Maybe
a checkbox to allow for freehand rotation.. I don't think there is any reason
to get rid of this feature,  it just has problems where users may accidentally
rotate a widget and cannot snap it back.

In most vector graphic editors, I would be able to hold shift or alt or ctrl 
to cause it to snap nicely to 90 degrees.

I work with a lot of people who have difficulty with fine motor control, and It
would be very easy for them to screw up a widget.

Accessibility issue.
