When rotated 90 degrees do we want the page/document layout be altered?

I don't think I understand what you're asking for there.

I love the rotate under mouse pointer position, can we have this also for objects?

The new implementation rotates the view of the canvas (i.e., View menu). This is a different kind of rotation from rotating the actual canvas (document, via thte Document menu) or rotating an object (Layer menu), as it is not making a physical change to the document.

I'm not sure how we would figure out which was meant if both existed as mousewheel actions?

The suggestion is ,if people change to a real 90 degrees view angle to either export to portrait mode (original document setting) or landscape mode (when rotated to 90 degrees)

Thanks for the clarification.

I don't like that. It mixes up rotating the view (which does not physically alter the doucment) and rotating the document, and would be confusing in my opinion. If one wants to physically alter the document, or the way it is exported, one should (in my opinion) use the existing mechanisms that do that.

Just to clarify - the rotation is the canvas rotation, you aren't rotating the document.

I personally don't feel it needs it. We have always had left/right canvas rotation options on the View Menu and this has never been an issue for users before. The documentation will cover this, but has yet to be added

Select the artboard vs select the object(s)?

Perhaps.
