It might have been better to have a policy to grandfather in old images. 
So if an image was uploaded prior to the introduction of automatic EXIF 
rotation, it wouldn't be auto-rotated. But at this point where it's a 
bit mixed up, I'm not sure how to fix the situation with older images.

EXIF rotation should be the default for any new images, however.

Perhaps we need a button which can do rotation in the same way as 
submitting a modified wiki article.
