I've written a userscript that (seems to, at least) fixes this issue, by moving the information from an extra widget on the side to just below the voting controls.
Mods will be familiar with the coloured icons we see for a number of things - it adds a pair of them under the voting controls, in the same order as the information is in the widget, and a third containing a link to the post timeline. (Hover over them for a reminder, if you're not sure.)
