Description

I would like a new widget that behaves as a VSplit of a number of frames:

VSplit_Frames

But that saves space by only having a single wall in between the various frames:

vfsplit

Is that something that would make sense to upstream?

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by locating the existing VSplit and Frame widgets, then clarify the desired API and wall-rendering behavior from the screenshots. Done would mean an agreed widget design with coverage for multiple frames and the single-wall layout.
