While I was explaining to myself why it was impossible to generate an
odd isometry with scale and rotate, I realized that [self scale:1:-1]
is a reflection, and so one can get odd isometries, like reflection
about the diagonal.  
[self rotate:45];
[self scale:1:-1];
[self rotate:-45];
exchanges the view coordinate axes.  

However, I'd still like to know if it's possible to do this more
directly.

			emabarrased at having overlooked the obvious
			but still curious,
