I remember that couple of years ago Eike did a pool on how name actions 
regarding horizontal and vertical splitting inside QtCreator. So, for some, the 
"horizontal" means that they want to see a horizontal splitter bar after the 
split, and for others it means that they want to see horizontally arranged 
editors (from left to right). The outcome was that we have now "Split" and 
"Split Side by Side" actions.
