Add camera direction
Preamble
WikiShootMe allows to see images on a map from Wikimedia Commons.
Description of the problem
Some photographs may need a shooting direction but at the moment that information is difficult to be added from Wikimedia Commons.
Proposed solution
The shooting direction could be both displayed and editable from WikiShootMe.
This is an example rappresentation taken from OpenStreetMap where this information is expressed in degrees clockwise from the top, and it's easy to be both displayed and edited:
What do you think about?

I am not able to edit the above message but note that the direction of a photo in Wikimedia Commons is expressed in this way:
{{Location|45.8078|8.2581|heading:35.1}}
The direction here ↑ is
35.1
degrees. -
Note that the Template:Location, quoted above, reads this property:
https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P7787
And that property is in use in Wikimedia Commons SD.
