I am quite keen to avoid constant rotation, so I want *all* apps to be 
tested and fine in both aspect ratios, or them *all* to be locked to the 
preferred orientation of the device. On Android I have a bunch of apps 
that want to be portrait, some that want to be landscape and some that 
support rotation. Games are probably the worst offenders at being 
inflexible.
