Hmm the problem is actually more complex:

a) pure ascii words should be rotated: eg "time: 12:34"

b) but not the numbers in mixed text: eg 1月23日

(strictly the date numerals should be converted to widechars
perhaps but I think that is non-trivial to do,
so just not rotating digits would work ok).

c) however the parens should be rotated: eg (日)
(though we could use widechar parens for this)
