This is very well, but I bet there are people who would want the old orientation back. Any chance of making it an option?
Fewer options is almost always better, all else being equal. When it comes down to something like this (upwards vs. downwards) that doesn't affect the drawing or its appearance on the screen, and doesn't limit what's possible or convenient with Inkscape, then consistency with the standard should be (as it has been) the only determining factor.
Fewer options is not almost always better. Fewer options is almost always more limiting for some group of users. It's also been my experience that bulia tends to have very good judgment about when such options are desirable.
