Because:
• You'll technically have three changing panels, one to switch between Movies/TV Shows/Anime, another one to switch between movie/tv show/anime item, and then another one right next to it, switching between metadata sections, before you know it, all you do is switch panels,
• And it's hard to know when you're actually editing/saving data or just viewing it, I think it's important to make the difference between definitely different, and make the two very clear.
• In your view, you might get to see metadata text or a single picture, in the current view you get to see a grand overview of some of the more important information.
I might not have been entirely clear but the current information only view should still be the default view (maybe as the summary tab in your metadata pop-up) so all the picturey wonderfullness and general information al stuff would still be present *and* it would clearly separate the editing from the viewing which would only be accessed when selecting the menu tabs.
But if it's all how you like it, fair enough then.
