BTW, shouldn't `sensibly' be the default?
Or even the only acceptable setting (besides setting it to
a home-cooked function)?
I mean the nil value can be simulated with
(setq split-width-threshold most-positive-fixnum)
and the `horizontal' value can be emulated with
(setq split-height-threshold most-positive-fixnum)
If most-positive-fixnum is too inconvenient, we could accept a nil
setting for the thresholds to mean the same as most-positive-fixnum.
