Issue Summary
Problem/Motivation
One of the most awesome benefits of adding vertical tabs in Drupal 7 was the javascript that allowed people to see what the current values were without having to pop-open the fieldsets. This benefit has been lost by moving the tabs to the right hand column.
I did a little research into the development of this new display of vertical tabs, and it looks like the current values are supposed to be present - at least according to the screenshots shown in this issue - the one that got committed.

Perhaps they were forgotten, or removed later for some other reason?
Proposed resolution
Put back the awesomeness that was vertical tabs - javascript revealing current values from within fieldsets.
Remaining tasks

Not sure why that doesn't work. Here's the link to the image:
