PixelBook in tablet mode does not respect user's screen orientation setting

Project Member Reported by xiaoh...@chromium.org, Jan 18 2018 
Chrome Version: 64.0.3282.87
OS: ChromeOS

What steps will reproduce the problem?
(1) This happens on PixelBook but probably applies also to other convertables
(2) Flip the PixelBook to tablet mode
(3) Turn the PixelBook to portrait mode
(4) Lock orientation of the PixelBook to portrait mode by clicking the quick settings menu in the bottom right corner and click the rotation menu item
(5) Click the power button to lock the device, then shutdown, then reboot
(6) Notice the device is locked landscape orientation (not portrait I selected)
(7) Manually change the orientation again to portrait on login screen and lock it to portrait
(8) Login to user account and noticed the orientation is flipped back again to landscape locked

What is the expected result?
The device should respect the user choice to lock to portrait orientation.

What happens instead?
The device locked the opposite orientation instead without user consent.

Oshima, since you were looking at default orientation, this is another thing to consider in the logic you're building.
Keeping orientation lock consistent.

The orientation lock in tablet mode isn't saved now AFAIK (which we should).
Is it what you're seeing or does it set the opposite orientation?

(7) Manually change the orientation again to portrait on login screen and lock it to portrait

I assume you tilt the device to portrait?

I couldn't reproduce this. Do you have any flag set on about:flags?

re #2
Yes, I think I am seeing the fact we are not storing the user's orientation lock preference.  I did tilt the device to switch orientation to portrait.  And I do have some about:flags set.

Thanks for clarification. I think 8) is a side effect of chrome restart due to flag change. In any case, we should remember this. Let's try to fix this in 66.
