Determining if orientation locked on Android?

[Sannyasin Brahmanathaswami]

I'm not sure about how to test for lock orientation, but there are a number of related but reports, most recently

http://quality.livecode.com/show_bug.cgi?id=19465

Elanor has an interesting test stack there.

I suspect it is the same bug. in my case I want the "game" like screens/stacks to *always* go landscape, 

But we are in a modular environment, the main navigations screens are locked to portrait and rendered as such.

This is working on Android if you set the mobileSetAllowedOrientations to "portrait, portrait upsidedown" So you *could* take control yourself… 

But if you navigated from a portrait stack to a landscape stack using…

Setting the mobileSetAllowedOrientations to "landscape left,landscape right" 

The stack is rendered left to right very small, and only re-renders full screen when the user turns their phone.

Again, not exactly your issue/question, but smells like fish in the same barrel.

    can determine if the user has locked their device to one specific 
    orientation.
    
    Any clues?
