Comment (by mikeschroder):

 On the above, unless we do something like @n7studios is suggesting, if we
 apply this for GD, it would indeed remove EXIF and IPTC data. I like this
 route, and it's worth exploring, but it's probably a wider scope than this
 ticket (Related: #11877).

 I would rather not destroy this data by default for GD, since it's
 important to have in full size images for things including
 License/Copyright and color profiles.

 Questions:
 - How much does this increase image resize CPU time/Memory usage?
 - What unexpected behavior might occur for clients that do support the
 rotation EXIF flag?
 - Should we fix this for Imagick first, if it looks most feasible?
