Using a custom UIPresentationController with horizontally compact UITraitCollection, but a popover otherwise

Question

I have a view controller that I'm presenting in a universal iOS application. On the iPhone, it displays using a custom UIPresentationController which adjusts the frame of the presented view using UIPresentationController's frameOfPresentedViewInContainerView method. This is working fine, however...

On iPad, I'd like the same view controller to display as a popover when the UITraitCollection has a Regular width, but to switch to my custom UIPresentationController when in Compact width. Is this achievable?

how would you transition between the two on rotation? remove and replace? — Wain

It's impossible.Straight from Apple's "What's new in iOS8 guide"

With the amount of screen space available, the iPad has a regular size class in the vertical and horizontal directions in both portrait and landscape orientations.
