A further observation, the crop tool when active, if you hold Ctrl it goes into rotate mode. Why not just allow the mousewheel to rotate the crop at this point?
In addition, Alt causes the crop region to scale around the centre. Why not allow Alt+Mousewheel to size the crop area?
This just hooks into Ctrl+Shift+[ and ] which currently rotate the image by a degree. You can increase or decrease the minimum amount by changing the 2 in the above script.
Hacky, but it works, and the time it saves is immense.

I have solved this with Autohotkey if you're on Windows.
