Ah, right. Even more confusing ...

Almost everyone uses counter-clockwise numbering, with 1 at the
bottom left. Sometimes, they rotate the chip but stay clockwise.
Rohm's DTC123 is the only one I remember that uses a clockwise
numbering for a common package, though there might be some I've
successfully banished from my memory ;-)

Yes, agreed. Inconsistent pin numbering is dangerous. 

I'd say that we should try to keep the number of footprints low
and particularly avoid stray inconsistencies. So I'd go for a
clockwise numbering for this one as well. We can just pretend
it's not from Rohm, and nobody will even think there might be a
difference ;-)

Another issue is the package naming. According to Digi-Key:

Vendor	Package		Pin width (1,2)	Pin width (3)	Length, pin ends
Diodes	SOT-523		0.15-0.3	0.15-0.3	1.45-1.75
NXP	SOT-416, SC-75	0.15-0.3	0.15-0.3	1.45-1.75
ON Semi	SOT-416, SC-75	0.15-0.3	0.15-0.3	1.4-1.7
Rohm	EMT3		0.2		0.3		1.6

ON Semicondictor are nice enough to also include a footprint in the
data sheet:

All of them are well within the tolerances of each other, so
this is really a single footprint. I like the SOT-523 name,
because it tells me what this looks like (size class 5, the 2
is probably the number of sides, 3 pins in total), But SOT-416
or SC-75 seem to be "more standard" (?)

There are even crazier names in the field, such as Panasonic's
SSMini3, which is again a compatible footprint.
