Unfortunately the split/full screen trick with shutter glasses requires modified glasses. Normally it's one eye shuttered, other eye open, the trick uses both eyes open, both eyes closed. Just a simple switch on the glasses would work. That's something that wouldn't change the tv hardware/firmware or PS3 firmware, except maybe a automatic switch in Sony modified shutttered glasses only, which would be limited to new Sony tv/shutter setups. So... it ain't going to happen for me with my Pansonic 3d plasma and glasses, unless Pansonic comes out with new full/split screen capable shutters (licensed by Sony?), and then i'd have to buy 2 new glasses, no thanks. 

Hmm.. I'm not sure, I guess it comes down to how much info the signal for synchronising the shutterglasses with the TV carries. If the signal can say to one pair of shutterglasses "close both eyes" and to the other one "open both eyes" at the same time, then it should definitely be possible with todays TVs/Shutterglasses (as all of them ofc should be able to activate both of their LCD screens at the same time). If the signal can't speak to the glasses individually, then you are right that the solution probably would be to set one of the glasses to right/right and the other to left/left, which you would need to do at the glasses themselves I imagine.

Yes it does depend on how the signal is transmitted to the glasses. It's most likely just a sync signal, I doubt that the 3d tv sends a 'right on, right off, left on, left off' signal. IF it does, then a firmware update on the tv would enable full/split. that's a big 'IF'.
