Is there some sort of clever hack of achieving that, because I did not find anything. I have a 27" Mac and everything is still kind of huge.

I don't know of a third party solution, but I do know that Spotlight can do all of those things, except for #6, but that's more of a function of Word than Spotlight.
RightZoom is what you want (scroll down to the bottom of the page or use this MacUpdate link)
This free tool fixes an inconvenient behavior of green Zoom button in Mac OS X. It will always expand windows on a full screen instead of strange resizing.
Another one is BetterTouchTool. You might not think of BetterTouchTool as being a window manager, but it has window snapping (as seen in Windows 7). Take a look:
Cinch also does the same thing, but it costs $7.

No - you get two windows in the current implementation. One on the left and one on the right.
I suppose the notification center slide over could be considered a "third window" but you can't put an application window there - it's just a system tray of sorts.
I would look at a program like Divvy on the Mac App Store for customizing a workspace with multiple tiled windows. It's not split view, but it's far more flexible and able to make use of the 27 inch display space to quite a granular basis.
