I would *think* this would be a simple Automator action to write

I just can't make this work. I'm going through automator and trying to come up with an action/workflo that would:

(a) open the Monitors preference pane
(b) tell my secondary monitor to either:
(b1) rotate 90 degrees or, if it is already in that orientation,
(b2) return to standard orientation
© exit w/o the need for the confirmation dialog box in (b1) above

Yeah, it's not a big deal to go into the prefs and do it but that's what making a workflow is all about, right?

So until they build monitors with the orientation sensors (whose name escapes me at the moment) (accelerometer?) like in the iPhone, I would love something like this.
