I was aware of Create Partition, but (because I never looked into it) I 
didn't know it could be done other that at the beginning of the session.

Rare?  Huh-uh.  Maybe not very many, but very wide-spread.  NetView does
it (or did it until fairly recently).  I'm not sure why since the single
partition uses the whole presentation space.  (I may have the terms 
wrong.  I haven't looked at that since about 1990.)
