I don't think so... the viewport rotates clockwise as per the angles-increase-clockwise rule. The visual effect when rotating the *view* clockwise is that the things you're looking at go anti-clockwise. Kind of confusing, but I think it's working correctly.
Edit: huh, maybe not - I suppose the action implies the layer rotates and the view stays the same angle, but actually the view rotates and the layer doesn't... I need to think about this...
