Then keybindings could be like these:
C-x w r a rotate-windows-anticlockwise
C-x w r c rotate-windows-clockwise
C-x w r h flip-windows-horizontally
C-x w r v flip-windows-vertically
C-x w r t transpose-windows

Agreed.
Also there is 'C-x w d' bound to toggle-window-dedicated,
so the key [D] can't be used to [D]elete a window
neither to [D]isplay a window in the specified direction.

Depends on how often these key sequences are used.
