It would be really interesting to know whether this feature is regarded as
WONTFIX according to the Dolphin Development Philosophy [1]. There are many
users who frequently ask for it, and tried to rely on it (e.g. by switching to
Konqueror when needed). But driving frequent users of Dolphin away into
Konqueror is not really the solution. Dolphin pretty much has all the file
managing powers Konqueror has; I know it is embeded, but there are some tiny
differences, such as the types of URL's supported, embedded viewing of archives
and images etc. While some of those features doesn't strictly qualify as "file
management", splitting views more than once both horizontally and vertically
would definitely benefit a lot of the workflow.

One of my typical workflow: (I know it can be implemented differently via
bookmarks or tabs etc., but none is as straightforward as just multiple split
views): I have a tons of files in my ~/Downloads which I organize occasionally.
Most of them go to a few different places: ~/Documents/xxx, ~/Documents/yyy,
~/.Trash/, ~/some/temporary/folder/to/be/processed/then/archived-or-sent.
Sometimes I end up having multiple versions of the same file over a long period
of time, so if I can see each view, then I'd just move an old version /
duplicate to trash rather than moving it over to the respective folder
