I realize that the nautilus-image-converter plugin provides this same bit of functionality but the way the plugin implemets the rotation didn't really suit my needs. Specifically, there were too many clicks involved for a simple rotation. Instead we'll just use jpegtran to do the rotation.
Note* jpegtran by default, will only copy some of the Exif data, so we'll pass the -copy all parameter to jpegtran.
Launch the Nautilus Actions Congfig Tool from your Control Panel or comamnd line:
nautilus-actions-config-tool
Action Tab>
Create a New Action
Context label: Rotate Left
Tooltip: Rotate Left
Select your favorite icon
Command tab>
Path: jpegtran
Parameters: -rotate 270 -copy all -outfile %f %f
Working directory: %d
Mimetypes Tab>
Mimetype filter: image/*
Action Tab>
Create a New Action
Context label: Rotate Right
Tooltip: Rotate Right
Select your favorite icon
Command Tab>
Path: jpegtran
Parameters: -rotate 90 -copy all -outfile %f %f
Working directory: %d
Mimetypes>
Mimetype filter: image/*
Now you should have a Rotate Right and Rotate left in your right click context menu.
