The pertinent logic actually seems to live in
`AbstractClient::checkQuickTilingMaximizationZones`.

I do have some code which implements the alternate logic but it is fairly
spaghetti. I'll have to think about it a bit more.

I also found the existing code rather meh to read because of the manual border
checking, so I was thinking about QRecting the entire thing until I realized
that the current method operates on the maximized size of the client (i.e.
excluding the panel) which made qrect rather unusable unless one extends them
well beyond the maximized area coordinates so as to cover potential panels on
each side.

All fairly meh.

If you are interested, you could try to implement yourself. We have a complete
test coverage for quick tiling in autotest/integration/test_quick_tiling.cpp
and implementation should be in geometry.cpp

I was assuming you'd at least know the (rotated) screen resolution. The way I
see it you would need to `if maxX>=maxY then splitHorizontal else
splitVertical` and the split would always yield smart space usage. The fact
that the screen is rotated doesn't really matter in the end, you only need to
know the "aspect orientation", for lack of a better word, and that can easily
be checked through the resolution.

I don't think we have sufficient information for that.
