It seems all the current iOS devices maps to the new iOS 8 size classes nicely except iPad landscape? I seem not able to figure out how to use the size class feature to draw a different scene for iPad landscape (different from iPad portrait)?

Is that intended by design in Apple's mind or am I miss something about the iOS size classes?

It appears to be Apple's intent to treat both iPad orientations as the same -- but as a number of us are finding, there are very legitimate design reasons to want to vary the UI layout for iPad Portrait vs. iPad Landscape.

However, I believe I have an answer for adapting size classes to do just what you need.
