LEdit will load the primitive, it just chokes on the filename being in its
editor. When you use the part, the primitive's filename won't be in LEdit's
editor.
Another good option is to use LDAO's editor. It's quite easy to rotate a
primitive in the editor, and if you are using LDLite, you can view the
results right away.

Inlining is not the way to go with primitives, which I think is clear to you.
