STR:

1. Open Cut the rope.
2. Long press home button to let the task switcher show.
3. The orientation of cut the rope 'icon' in the tak switcher is portrait-oriented.

Should this be landscape-oriented? It set the icon's background of the moz-element to the iframe of apps just now.

The orientation of cuttherope is correct when it is inited:) http://i.imgur.com/BYaN3.png

Another observation:
* When the task switcher of cuttherope is shown, the faded background is also portrait-oriented; http://i.imgur.com/obR8a.png
  When you click on the icon of cuttherope, the app in background is turned to correct orientation.

After investigation, I think the core cause is: window manager lock orientation to portrait mode first and then display the task switcher. So any iframe now is in portrait mode. Therefore the task icon which use app-iframe as its background(by moz-element) just show what as same as the iframe in the background.

So how about use 90 degree transform in specific task icon, distinguished by the app.manifest.orientation is whenever window manager display the task list? :)

Cut the rope is gone, but we still need to verify if the behavior of the System app is correct. @alive can you do that again?

1. Card view displays landscape app correctly now,
2. BUT switch between landscape app and portrait app using card view, leads to very strange behavior. The landscape app will disappear from cards view....
