I find that anytime I am using an unconventional rotation of a text frame,
the editing is much easier done in the Story Editor.  Generally, the text in
such unconventional frames is fixed and only needs to be tweaked a bit, to
conform to the space allowed or to update the info.  The Story Editor, not
being WYSIWYG, is much more precise and easier to work with for me in these
instances.
