I enjoy the drawing capabilities of Persuasion 2.0, but I think it lacks a
useful feature, i.e. being able to rotate text strings.  I'd like to have a
string appear as would a label on the y-axis of a plot (with the baseline of
the text running parallel to the y-axis).

I'm able to rotate _each_ letter of a string: for example,

L
A
B
E
L

but this isn't what I want.

Have I missed something?  Can version 2.1 draw text with a vertical baseline?
