Group with connector rotated

Open attached document. It contains a group with two shapes and a connector between them in the left part. The group is rotated in PowerPoint. The right part contains a screenshot from PowerPoint.
The connector in LO keeps start and end point, but the geometry is new and does not follow the rotation.

Connectors can in principle be transformed as other shapes in ODF. But that is not implemented in LibreOffice. Even if the connector shape is detached from the shapes, its geometry cannot rotate.

Thanks Regina, reproduced comparing Office 365 with:

Version: 24.2.0.0.alpha0+ (X86_64) / LibreOffice Community
Build ID: 31fb3045dabdb27d913712f3abcade315e3ea9bd
CPU threads: 8; OS: Linux 5.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3
Locale: en-AU (en_AU.UTF-8); UI: en-US
Calc: threaded

and in 7.4.7.2.

Back in 7.3.7.2, it would display the same as in MS Office but would not be connected.
