Apple's UISplitViewController has been given a very specific behavior, and cannot be customized this way...
In my company, we had to implement our own SplitViewController - our intent was to handle different display of 'masterViewController' when in portrait orientation, different sizes for both controllers in landscape orientation (than those allowed by UISplitViewController), and a different way to handle 'masterViewController' display in portrait orientation -
This heavy customization led us to deal with all kinds of problems regarding UIViewController containing others UIViewControllers - (UIViewControllers containement wasn't supported by Apple before iOS 5 ! see CoconutKit on Github, or this example for workaround examples...).
For your specific needs, here's Matt Gemmell's own attempt at implementing custom SplitViewController , it's quite good, you can still fork the code to make it fit your own needs.
