Description

iOS does not support the Ti.UI.Window.orientation property to determine the current screen orientation. It does support the deprecated Ti.UI.orientation property, which provides the same information, but for parity, this should move to Ti.UI.Window.

Documentation says Ti.UI.orientation is deprecated, but Ti.UI.Window is undefined on iOS and thus unusable for me. Starting new apps and I have to use a deprecated property - that just doesn't seem right, so this is a +1 for getting this bug sorted. Thanks, Mike.

Test case:

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow();
   win.open();
   
   Ti.API.info("********** win.orientation = " + win.orientation);

Run the above test case and check the output in the console.
