I have a laptop (Thinkpad X220 Tablett) that I use at work. As you guess for "normal" work I use TDE, but unfortunately I found out that I can't use the touchscreen well with TDE. If I rotate the screen I can't calibrate it correctly (the pointer coordinates don't get rotated at all, so pointing up right shows the pointer left down...).
A recent install of openSuSE Leap 42.3 let me discover that Gnome 3 (Gnome Shell 3.20.2) has a Wacom calibration tool that solves this issue perfectly. I've even managed to run konqueror as file browser from Gnome's Dash, but I still prefer TDE.
So my present solution is to run TDE and TDM, and to logout/login in Gnome Shell when I need the Wacom Tablett.
Question: does the xsetwacom command-line tool exist on your system? If so, you should be able to use it to apply a rotation.
