ok so each jpeg file now has to have a set of coordinates that are relative to the image to determine how the image should be shown as a thumbnail

JFIF supports embedded thumbnails already, WONT FIX.

Absolutely gently caress all software seems to support thumbnails, so :shrug:

can you rotate a jpeg safely

In 90° increments, yes.

i presume you decide it to some bit planes, do a few nested for loops and move the pixels around, and re-encode

You rebuild the AC coefficients in each DCT block whilst keeping the same DC. So basically decoding a couple of layers but not the entire image.

Or, just use one of the bajillion apps and libraries that implement it already:

There's a lot of interesting stuff that can be done in the frequency domain without a full decode,
