We've worked on it as well already. As a first step we improved the loading time of large items. As the next step we have moved identifiers into their own section. This already helped a lot by removing identifiers from the rest of the statements where they were mostly clutter. We have also made a few small UI tweaks to improve the spacing. The next step is going to be ordering of statements. For that we have to do some groundwork and then community input. I hope we can start with that in the next 2 months. To summarize: Being worked on but it is an on-going task that will be with Wikidata for a long time as it grows.
