I'm not sure exactly why but I can tell you that when using rotation
angles < 90°, being able to rotate ccw can be useful. Otherwise, you
have to rotate cw a bunch of times to get to the same angle. Someone
thought it was important enough to add to the legacy canvas so we should
probably add it to the gal canvases as well.
