This patch literary allow you to rotate displayed vehicles in depot :)
I suppose such eye-candy are useless, but some might like it.

by the way, I wonder if there is an easier way to rotate ribi (ie some function to do it?)
This looks great. I like it.
I guess it doesn't consume a lot of resources (memory, cpu, etc..) so It would be a cool easter egg (i.e. Press SHIFT+R to rotate the vehicle's view at the depot window) or you could implemented as a parameter loaded from the simutab.conf file (depot_display_view=N)
I think a rotate button is fine. So can the user look at all sites.
