Example .doc with rotated shapes

In the [MS-DOC] file format, when I shape is rotated, the text of the shape is not rotated. The orientation is determined by the character properties. 

When we import .doc files, we rotate the text with the shape. 

Steps to reproduce:
1. In Word, insert shape
2. Add text to shape
3. Rotate shape
4. Save
5. Open in Writer

Expected Result:

Writer is same as Word. Text is not rotated.

Actual Results: 

Text is rotated with Shape


This is the opposite of how we treat text in native ODF Writer files. See Bug 86529
