I agree that you should be the one to decide whether to straighten
verticals; however, I absolutely LOVE the Transform feature in LR that will
automatically, or manually if you prefer, straighten up every vertical and
horizontal.  I don't always use it as it performs, but the individual
sliders are fantastic!
