I remember we once considered creating a default function with "intelligently splitting" logic (IOW, moving the `else' part of `if' in `window--try-to-split-window' to a separate function) and setting the default value of `split-window-preferred-function' to the name of this function. This will allow defining three const values in defcustom: - the default function name; - vertically splitting function; - horizontally splitting function; - and user-defined function's name. -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
