Rotate map counter-clockwise

Map rotating is only clockwise. If I rotate to see behind e.g. a tall station, then I must rotate 3 more times to restore the original view. Rotating counter-clockwise would allow me to do so in just one rotation.

Possible but would need changes in quite a few places in the code...

An automated triple rotation triggered with "Ctrl" + click on rotation or "Ctrl"+"Shift'+"r" could be a solution that needs no changes in the rotation code.

But would it be faster than actually pressing "r" thrice? ???

Since rotating the map apparently can take a while for big maps, a single 180 degree rotation certainly has the potential to be faster than two 90 degree rotations. We have to implement a specific 180 (and 270) degree rotation, though.

As originally requested ;)
