Rotate markups before placement using a keyboard shortcut

I would like to suggest a new enhancement for future releases of Bluebeam Revu: the ability to rotate markups before placement using a keyboard shortcut. For example, pressing the Space bar while placing a markup could rotate it by 90 degrees with each tap. This feature is common in other design and markup applications and would significantly improve workflow efficiency, especially for users frequently needing to orient markups at various angles.

Currently, markups can only be rotated after placement, which requires additional steps and reduces productivity when placing multiple rotated markups. Allowing pre-placement rotation—ideally via an intuitive shortcut like the Space bar—would deliver a major usability improvement.

Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…

Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
