I think some "ugly" patterns can not be avoid for now and I don't think we need 
to waste too much on it currently.
You can take a look at ARM SVE. There are also many combine "unspecs" patterns.

Yes, that's clear.  One strategy is to look through combine's output and
see which combination results make sense for a particular backend.
I was wondering where the unspec-less patterns originate (when we
expand everything to predicated, unspec insns).

I didn't mean to say that splitters should be used, just that I had similary
"ugly" patterns with splitters and there will be more in the future.
