what's about a small function doing this, like 


(defun org-table-rotate-table  ()
  "Small hack to rotate a table."
  (interactive)
  (if (or (and (boundp 'zmacs-region-active-p) zmacs-region-active-p)
		  (and (boundp 'transient-mark-mode) transient-mark-mode mark-active))
      (save-restriction
        (save-excursion
          (narrow-to-region (point) (mark))
          (goto-char (point-min))
		  (reverse-region (point) (mark))
		  (org-table-transpose-table-at-point)))))

Or?

(defun org-table-rotating-table (beg end)  
  "Small hack to rotate a table."
  (interactive "r")
  (save-excursion
	(goto-char beg)
	(reverse-region beg end)
	(org-table-transpose-table-at-point)))
