Positive sense of rotations in Cartesian axes

Question

Writing:

Plot[x, {x, 0, 1}, AxesStyle -> Arrowheads[0.05]]

I get:

where the arrows indicate the positive direction of the horizontal and vertical translations.

Now I would also like to highlight the positive sense of the rotations in this plan as follows:

where the curved arrow would like it to look like the other two (this I traced quickly with Paint).

Any suggestions? Thank you!

There are plenty of examples with curved arrows in e.g. Arrow docs, where are you stuck exactly. — Kuba, Mar 07 '18 at 07:08
You can use arc[] from here in Arrow[] to get a circular arc with an arrowhead. — J. M.'s missing motivation, Mar 07 '18 at 07:10

I think I've solved it. For example, like this:

Show[Plot[x, {x, 0, 1}, AxesStyle -> Arrowheads[.05]], 
     Graphics[{Arrowheads[.05], 
               Arrow[BezierCurve[{{.05, -.05}, {.05, .05}, {-.05, .05}}]]}], 
     PlotRange -> All]

Now, writing:

Show[Plot[x, {x, 0, 1}, AxesStyle -> Arrowheads[.05], LabelStyle -> White], 
     Graphics[{Arrowheads[.05], 
               Arrow[BezierCurve[{{.05, -.05}, {.05, .05}, {-.05, .05}}]]}], 
     PlotRange -> All]

I get:

which is already a good result. The top would get to this other result:

but for now I have not found a way.

What are "cleats" here? – J. M.'s missing motivation Mar 07 '18 at 07:38

Try Ticks -> None. – J. M.'s missing motivation Mar 07 '18 at 07:44
