Last I looked the property was useless because window.orientation=0 meant different things on different devices. I.e. on some devices it meant "landscape mode" and others it meant "portrait mode". So unless webcompat at some point requiring it, I don't see us adding it. window.screen.orientation seems like a better way forward. / Jonas
