Description

We should show form validation errors in invisible fieldsets somehow in the tabs. Maybe something like this:

since pat-validation you do not really know whats going on, if you click on "save" and nothing happens because the validation error happens in another tab.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the save behavior with a validation error inside an invisible fieldset, then inspect the tab and validation behavior involved. Done means a failed validation is visibly indicated in the relevant tab so users can find the error instead of seeing no response.
