[Bf-committers] remove face flip tool?

[Julio Iglesias]

I work with low poly stuff frequently, and I used "face flip" a lot,
but it often gave frustrating results using it on groups of faces, so
in the end I tended to use it on individual pairs, or multiple (but
separated) pairs.

So, I think if you add support for rotating multiple edges at once, it
would be probably ok to leave it out.

Anyway, to help you decide, it would be probably better to post a poll
over BA.org and get the input of a wider range of users.

Regards.
