title: Inserting a space/view/image between UITabbar Items
body: <p>Porting an app to the ipad and in Landscape the tabbar looks a bit sparse so had the idea of separating the tabs (6 of them) and inserting an image between them.</p>
  
  <p>I currently use <code>TabBarKit</code> and it does everything and more the <code>UITabbar</code> does, but this is something I am kind of stuck on. Having trouble finding any way to insert empty space, either an image or <code>UIView</code> (the background is already an image)?</p>
  
  <p>What I've done so far is to add several extra tabbar items programmatically and set the image to nil and removing user interaction.
  (I found this solution on another stackoverflow thread, but it's not a perfect solution). </p>
  
  <p>I know <code>UIToolbar</code> has a flexible space item but when I tried to use this as a <code>tab bar item</code> it caused some issues.</p>
  
  <p>So if anyone has any ideas on how to insert a view, empty space etc into the tab bar it would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p><strong>UPDATE</strong></p>
  
  <p>Started a bounty because I'm curious to see if this can be done or not.
  The ipad landscape view has loads of room and I've been asked to put an image in the middle splitting the buttons.</p>
  
  <p>If the app gets rejected then more the fool me. Any examples, samples, suggestions, advice greatly appreciated</p>
