Summary	0005980: Feature request: Global rotation value option
Description	When you use the x/y/z-rotate shortcuts, it rotates objects by 90 degrees. It would be useful to be able to customise this angle in a global setting, for example 45 degrees instead. The reason I have the Arbitrary Transformation dialogue open so much (in 5979) is I'm always looking to rotate stuff by 45 degrees instead of 90. I'm always wishing I could just set the rotation value for the shortcuts to 45 and use those instead of having to fiddle with arbitrary transformation. The setting could go into Edit -> Preferences somewhere and the default could be 90 so existing functionality wouldn't break. A single value could apply to all of x,y,z rotation shortcuts, or there could be a separate setting for each.
