Is there such a thing as a VGA splitter that allows the monitors to be detected and used properly?

You mean separably with different resolutions?

No; same resolutions. Just wondering if you use two of the same model monitors if they can be detected as the right model and if you will have a choice of only all supported resolutions.

If going over long distances (5-10m+) then you're better off using a splitter with a signal amp... rather than just a Y-adapter...

Signal loss of VGA can have some pretty ugly effects.

If you're going distances more than 15m, you need to consider a balun instead... or a Y-adapter and a balun...

Yeah true, the Y splitters are only good for short distances.
