Mark is using splitter but wanted a different ration than 1/3->2/3.
I told him to hack the CSS for the pane widths and it didn't matter, because splitter.js is actually using the split bar location for the initial position.

Now I'm thinking we don't even need widths defined in
sidePanelLayout
mainPanelLayout

And for splitLayout, we might want to separate out the position info (which clients will want to override) from the other stuff.  Or we just document that clients should set left: xx in their HTML to control the position.

I was just explaining this stuff to Libing, so I updated the doc.  The css comments now explain the concept, the class itself has documentation, and the splitter js code also mentions it.
