any Wacom based tabletpc would really benefit from pen rotation aligned with display orientation. I have always had to create/modify rotation scripts that query xrandr and then set xsetwacom accordingly. I really think that Ubuntu should be able to do this considering the increasing popularity of tablet based devices.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
