Well, the photos app launches in portrait, but it already auto rotates, so yes, this can be an issue. I suspect the end solution will be "auto rotation enabled and made default, but make it possible for apps to have a "do not auto-rotate flag". If the Photos app is closed source, a clone can be written, or if open source, it can be patched, to counter the auto-rotation right now, say by changing how it determines what rotation to show the normal picture at. *Shrug*
