I changed "orientation" to "orientation-requested" but I did not make
"orientation-requested" an operation attribute. It behaves just like a Job
Template attribute for unformatted jobs (validation against supported,
default value, client supplied desired outcome, etc.)

But I did put in more words about how it does not apply to already formatted
document content and so it can never really conflict with what is in the
document data - it simply does not apply in those cases. I added that a
client SHOULD NOT supply an "orientation-requested" attribute for already
formatted document content - if it does, the Printer object will not use it.
