But it's ever so easy to do it after the fact. 

Before the fact, the only way to do it is to script Photoshop to give you the information about the image. But if you're going that far, you might as well rotate it in Photoshop. 

Even then, you can't import a graphic into InDesign without its being in a frame, so it can't be rotated until its in your document in a frame. 

If you import to a frame, it will go in that frame but if you just import, InDesign will create a frame on the fly.
