I shared a part of my configuration in the hope that it would be useful. 
AFAICS, the only commands in that list that are already bound are C-x 0 1 
2 3 +.  And C-x { } ^ if you count the subcommands.

That's what I do (and will continue to do) here, but feel free to use a 
negative prefix if you prefer.  Like Stefan, I never use a prefix argument 
for split-window-{right,below}.  FWIW, I very much doubt that such an 
argument is widely used.
