A very early version of the Wicket viewer had tabs, to separate out the properties from the collections; but this predates all the member groups/layout stuff we have now.
Even so, the architecture of the Wicket viewer would support this [1], and it is something that we intend to introduce, in some form or another. One obvious idea is to extend the layout syntax so that a domain object's properties and collections could be laid out across multiple tabs. Another use of tabs is to display alternative views of the entity (the same way that we support alternative views of collections, eg gmap3 [2] or fullcalendar2 [3]). To throw into the mix, we also have the idea of using tabs as a different way of doing bookmarks (ie multiple objects "open"). The .NET Naked Objects viewer works this way, and it's - arguably - a better UI experience. Or at least, more familiar. One solution might be to use horizontal tabs for bookmarks, and then vertical tabs for different regions of an entity. However, this would eat up the real estate. Or, we could have horizontal tabs under horizontal tabs. But that might be confusing to users. Interested in your thoughts...
