arguably* this is the correct behaviour and that if you want to rotate all the objects as a group then you should group them and ungroup them when you are done. (* i wouldn't argue this for myself, although the behaviour is logical I cannot say I have ever wanted to use it that way)

If we follow this logic, we'll also need to change scaling, skewing, flipping, and perhaps other operations all of which currently work on a selection as a whole.

the problem is that if you change the behaviour to rotate the whole group and some one actually does want to rotate each of the selected objects individually then they would be forced to do them one by one.

True, this may be useful sometimes too, but it's not for a global verb. It would be nice to have it as a checkbox in the Transform dialog or next to the top panel's Rotate field.
