Is there a shortcut key for "Rotate 90 degrees"...?

[Anonymous]

... rather than having to use the lengthy (by comparison) "Rotate tool > select origin > initial angle > final angle" process.

Ideally, I'd like "Rotate 90 left" and "Rotate 90 right" keystrokes.

Has anyone managed to do this?

Ctrl-E is pretty as close to this as I would want to get since you need to indicate the center point and direction of rotation anyway.

I find myself moving doing copy > rotate 90 > move processes with elements often, so the origin of rotation doesn't often enough matter in this case, because it's followed with a move operation.

You could combine the first two operations by rotating a copy with

Ctrl+Shift+E

I still think my idea of using the arrow keys is a good one!

Yes I want the same thing. My old 2D software could rotate stuff left or right 90 deg by using the plus and minus keys on the keypad by a configurable amount (ie 90 deg or 45 deg). Soooo much quicker as most of the time when you want to rotate something it is by 90 deg.
