[Feature] Directory Split View & Tiling Windows #754

I've been messing around with Cairo a bit and I really like it so far, even going so far as to edit one of the default themes to fit my wallpaper better. One thing I noticed while doing so is that it is very frustrating to have my code editor overlap with the files I'm looking at. I also really like the feature of some Linux file managers that allows the window to be split for easy file moving.

This all brings me to my proposed change: Tiling windows with the dynamic desktop, or splitting the dynamic desktop to show two locations.

An example: suppose I'm working on a project, downloading images from the web to use. I'd like to have the project folder accessible along with the downloads. I realize that I could just set the download location when downloading, but I feel it would be much easier to be able to split the file view, and it would feel more integrated with windows than having the original file explorer open a new window.

Another use case might involve setting up a GitHub repository, where you need to be able to view your files without them being obstructed by the window for your code editor.
