In my mind not locking the orientation associates with resizing-text, although from the guideline text I would go with “Adaptable” (1.3) rather than “Distinguishable” (1.4).



I suppose it could go under 4, but it jars a little because it is “Compatible” (in the developer’s mind at least). Orientation is a mode of a user-agent, not a compatibility issue per-se.



If it were considered a user-agent issue, it is something the user-agent could also solve by allowing the user to over-ride the HTML/App.
