Description of the new feature/enhancement

Once a tab is split, there's no way to return it to normal, meaning either having to continue working in half the space or starting a new tab and losing everything from the current one. It should allow for either closing one half or splitting them into two tabs.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
