[Bf-committers] Proposal: Rotate view with tablet pen(Left drag) in Sculpt mode

[Charles Wardlaw]

Since this setup wouldn't be obvious to new users, can this be made  
into a default? Or does the passthrough conflict with holding alt to  
rotate? If it doesn't conflict I can't imagine a reason not to make it  
standard.
