LOL. I always edit to #1 as well - and I tried "that." The only agreement

I've always edited to your option #1. Nonrestrictive clauses are set off by
commas.

But my personal choice would be to restructure so that the sentence uses a
restrictive clause:
4.)     The information is displayed across five tabs that, from left 
to right, are Overview, Category, Locus, Sequence, and Details.
