Agree to the WF.

But what works surprisingly well is to rotate with an external tool (using
"pdftk input.pdf cat 1-endeast output output.pdf" on Linux) and to load this
document in Draw.

I don't have a strong opinion on this. Rotating all of your Draw pages with
their content is indeed not easy, and perhaps is worth supporting.

Your statement about Draw not being a PDF editor is sensible, good to set
expectations.

Sorry but Draw (or one of the other LO modules that will filter import from
PDF) is NOT a PDF editor. LibreOffice is not a PDF editor--full stop.

Once a PDF has been filter imported and its content parsed to document canvas,
its content can be rotated, or reoriented. But that is a function of the Draw
(or other module) canvas handling. It no longer has ANYTHING to do with the
source PDF. Follow-on export from LO back to PDF will corrupt an original PDF
if you overwrite it and think of LO as an editor. DON'T DO IT!

Rotation / reorientation of a PDF page imported with the pdfium project libs is
trivial--but is limited to single PDF page import handling as an image.

All that said, an enhancement to module handling of PDF sourced images
(pdfium-based import) or full canvas of PDF source Draw objects (poppler-based
import) on canvas is probably feasible.

@Miklos? Worth doing, or toss it back => WF
