Topicons, I don't know, can you? It didn't work when I've tried it on beta release. Maybe they will fix it, then it will work for what, 1 release? Until it become broken again. Let's be honest, they don't want the tray and if it breaks, well... it sucks to be you

Nah. The philosophy is proven 100%. No API proves 100% flexibility for extension developers. Session support proves all downstream can tailor desktops.

One can certainly drag'n'drop files with Nautilus and you don't even need to split a window in half. You can drag'n'drop from the main pane into the side pane and thus into a different directory for example. This does not require to split a window or to open a new one. But for more complex drag'n'drop can one open as many windows as necessary and perform drag'n'drop between them. In that sense is Nautilus already split when used with it's side pane, but can be split into N windows, too. So you aren't limited.
It's your habits acquired through KDE, which make it awkward for you. It's fine when you want to hold onto habits - we all have them. It's however not fair nor objective to use them as an argument against GNOME or KDE or any other desktop.

Instead, when you truly want to use a different desktop even just for a short time do you need to change your habits, too, or you will definitely have problems.

But split screen is actually older than any graphical desktop. It's in the name of the technique, which used the entire screen and splits it into half. Graphical desktops then took over the screen and divided it into more than just two halves. To hold on to split screens is retro and anachronistic, but you're certainly free to have your habits of course.
