I have done something similar, with a document set that has approx 60-70 columns. I created a custom new form for the document set (as this is the only way to edit the new form for a doc set) and embedded jQuery in it to give the form tabs, do client side validations etc.
I then edited the edit and view forms, added content editor web parts with pretty much the same jQuery, so they get the tabs and the edit form gets the validations. It all works well, and although there is some maintenance when the fields change, I much prefer it to have to change a little bit of jQuery and let the ootb list web part handle the CRUD operations then to have to develop a set of custom forms to do it (I know info path is an option, but we use managed metadata, so that pretty much rules that out).
