It is currently blocked with an artificial check:

if (panelCreator != null) {
    if (splitUI && (testWindows != null || windowListCreator != null)) {
        // TODO Is it required? We can support both
        throw new IllegalStateException("Split UI is not allowed "
                                        + "with additional windows");
    }
}

We have a number of manual tests, which has some text area in the instruction window to print a feedback from the test to be evaluated by a tester.

Removing this check allows us to implement this. 
We can consider making a special methods for this later.

This is required for the https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/18250.
