Let me rephrase: why would we need a rotated area with thumbnails? I just 
think showing rotated thumbnails is useless.

FYI: rotating a window is trivial in kwin - built in feature of the rendering 
pipeline. The difficult part would be IMHO the X atom and calculating the 
correct aspect in the thumbnail effect. Currently we use a high-level API call 
for that.
