Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Editor Tabs version 1.75 as active, updated 16y ago and tested up to WordPress 3.1.
Overview
About this plugin
This simple plugin is designed primarily for sites that are using WordPress as a content management system, however it can be extremely useful for both. If you are using a more complex WordPress install and theme you are likely to end up with a long list of dialog boxes on the edit pages to manage the different elements of your site. This can be a usability problem for two reasons, one being that a client may not know they have control over an element because it will be hidden way down the page.
Additionally you can get to a point where you have to scroll way down and up to make changes and then publish the site.
This is especially true if you are using CMS plug-ins like PODS or Flutter.
I am currently working on finding a way to better work around moving meta boxes into the right hand column. Currently doing so will still give it the behavior of being a tabbed content area until you reload the edit page. IE: It will still show / hide the content and the tab will still appear in the menu as well.
Any suggestions on the logic / behavior would be greatly appreciated as I am somewhat stumped at this point.
