That's me writing it wrong, sorry :-). I intended to say right to left. And
still not into the being rotated mood here either. He simply wants to draw a
line with arrow to the left (I would do the same)

I don't see the practical advantage of being upside down (except the
programming logic doing this).I would expect that text to switch side between
90 and 275 degree as the initial reporter.  

Maybe there is a use case for this behavior (to be upside down), however I
currently don't see it. It's more an unpractical (less natural) behavior.
I wound't expect it, nor did the reporter :-). So from 'user' perspective there
might be something wrong. 

Even a checkbox would do.. rotate text between 90-275 degree :-). If this needs
to be this way for whatever reason. But I have the feeling this proposal would
be come a file format issue :-(
