It would be great to expose the same functionality Maps.app uses to rotate the map according to the compass heading in the SDK.

[mapView rotateToHeading:(BOOL)rotateToHeading animated:(BOOL)animated];
@property BOOL rotatedToHeading;
@property BOOL showHeadingAngleWithUserLocation; // whether the heading accuracy angle is shown or not

Optionally, it would be wonderful to rotate the map manually by a specified angle:

[mapView rotateToAngle:(float)angle animated:(BOOL)animated];
@property float rotatedToAngle;
