Hm... I can't say I had really noticed that the rotation directions are 
opposite between the two. After a quick test I noticed that you can rotate 
something in the default direction but if you go too far you have to hit R 
more times to "back up".

It would be useful to have R to do rotations in one direction and either 
Ctrl+R or Shift+R to do rotations in the other.
