Created attachment 238277 [details] Screenshot I20131210-2000 The Split Editor commands have bad names. I would expect one command to split horizontally and one to split vertically.
And the descriptions should also tell what each command does.
I'll fix this with bug 423892 PW

This is not solved: I still see 3 (instead of 2) commands and all have the same description: "Split or join the currently active editor. It can be split either horizontally or vertically."

It will show you the parameterized commands with the representation of their parameter in '()' and because there are so few, it also shows the default command with no parameterization. I'll try making the parameter non-optional, so you have to choose one or the other. Another thing we can do is enhance the description so it states the default behaviour if no parameter is given. PW

Actually, that might be harder than removing the non-parametrized command. If I look at "Show In (*)", I see that they share the same description and the non-parametrized "Show In" does not appear on the Keys preference page or with Ctrl+3.
Remove the non-parameterized version of the command: http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.ui.git/commit/?id=c8bef62e8223fe0d50e455ba7555babc4cebe413 and http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.ui.git/commit/?id=5c234b1e41ed727415f695eb3b71439751d1c16a Now only the 2 commands show up in quick access and the keys pref page.

Argh! It "works" but we now get this each time a workspace (even new one) is started: !MESSAGE Conflicting handlers for org.eclipse.ui.window.splitEditor: {org.eclipse.ui.internal.SplitHandler@a691d3} vs {org.eclipse.ui.internal.SplitHandler}
OK, that was an extra default handler. Removed with http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.ui.git/commit/?id=1f2e7c9d79cc5f66076df1daa952acd0bf96e161 PW
