<pre>Description:
The pivot-point should be remembered after being custom-set, with a separate
button to re-set the pivot point to default. (in case you lost it off-screen)
Or there should be a setting (system-wide or toggle per object) to remember it.
And a new button to re-set the pivot point to it's default.
The side-bar under properties>rotation would be a place to have them too.
Here is an example movie of how it works in Inkscape (and why):

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create a shape (triangle)
2. go to rotation mode
3. click object twice, move pivot point to a corner of the triangle
4. rotate triangle (it rotates around the corner)
5. select anything else
6. re-select the triangle and try to rotate it, it will rotate around center,
not it's corner. The pivot point has jumped back.
Actual Results:
When trying to make an umbrella, copies had to be rotated correctly in one
move, or the point had to be re-set again.
Expected Results:
It should remember the pivot point to remain in place when rotating the same
object twice.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: No
OpenGL enabled: Yes
Additional Info:
Once set, you can copy the object and it is remembered in the copy once. But
once de-selected it is lost.
When accessing the rotation via [right-click >position and size > rotate]
twice, it resets in between, because right-button is de-selecting
