map rotation

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I would like to see a setting to be able to rotate the map to a specified
angle, not just due N.  This would be tricky as we might need to zoom and
clip bounds on the sides.

please change this to an enhancement.  I cannot see how to do this with my 
current
user settings.

I wonder if this would be better handled at the tile source, or with vector 
data. If we simply rotate existing 
images, the text will be sideways.

I wish I can make the map rotate even if the text is rotated, when driving it's
convenient to have that !

I tried to subclass RMMapView and use [view setTransform:
CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(angle)] but it don't do the job right :

- the center of the rotation is the upper left corner and I can't shift it to 
the
center of the view with view.center = CGPointMake(x,y), I don't understand why 
this
do not work ?

- there are missing part of the map because we should draw a larger area when
rotating and there is a gray square on the right of the map.

way too difficult to make these adaptations and have them verified to work with 
the multiple layer hierarchy.
