Still an issue in 14.04 / Unity 7.2.3

For me all thumbnails in the dash (in both file and photo lense) have
the correct orientation, only when clicking on an item to open the
larger preview, the preview has wrong orientation. See the attached
screenshot.

Title:
  Preview ignores EXIF Orientation tag for jpegs

Status in Unity:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 12.10 (quantal), Unity 6.8.0-0ubuntu2

  Many (most?) cameras detect when a photo was taken while the camera
  was rotated, and store this in the JPEG EXIF Orientation tag. The
  preview view does not check the Orientation tag so many photographs,
  typically those in portrait format, are not rotated correctly.
