> This patch removes the buggy split-view functionality from KoMainWindow. split-view has a number of problems:
> 
> * crashes when removing views
> * duplicates the actions so when a view is split you cannot e.g. delete a shape with the delete key
> * it is limited in that it can only show views on one document, instead of splitting the view and then making it possible to show several documents side-by-side

> After discussion on irc, we felt it was better to let the window manager handle side-by-side views. To that end, a patch to optionally hide dockers if the window loses focus will follow.
