On the other hand, I could imagine it to be annoying sometimes, especially if you fail to notice it to be on (in case of subtle changes). :-/ > - The split view handle is only visible when the guides are visible.

Unfortunately making them always visible is definitely not an option. Guides are very practical feature but they are also in the way. Many often, you absolutely need to make them disappear. This is just as true for generic guides, as for mirror guides, or here split view guides. In the later case, the guide is just right in the border between with and without the effect you are comparing. Sometimes you want to do so the most seamlessly possible. And a line just at the separation points is making the comparison difficult. If you have a lot of need to switch guide visibility on/off, I'd suggest you change the shortcut to some direct key. I know this is what does the artist I work with, because guide visibility is quite a frequently used switch.
