Nov 30, 2021 at 19:41 comment added Mike Shulman Haha, yes, you could try to define something like that. Often in applications of double categories there is a distinction between the two kinds of arrows and it's clear which kind of profunctor would be most appropriate. But I could imagine some other applications where one might want to consider both together.
Nov 30, 2021 at 19:36 comment added varkor Thanks, this is an interesting example. Given that neither horizontal nor vertical profunctors are primary, it seems plausible that the right kind of structure to consider here is a "double equipment" (by which I don't mean the usual "double category with companions and conjoints" perspective of an equipment, but rather an identity-on-objects double functor between double categories with some appropriate structure).
