For a custom form I tried to hide the full vertical-tabs container when a checkbox was unchecked. For that I used the #state property as described in the Form-API description. It didn't work because vertical-tabs don't have a wrapper around them to be used by state.js.
The proposed patch introduces a wrapper and adjusts state.js so that the visibility of a vertical-tabs fieldset can be triggered using #state.

Doesn't seem to work for me. This is probably a duplicate issue to http://drupal.org/node/1148950

Indeed a duplicate of #1148950: Applying #states to a vertical tab does not update the vertical tabs menu.
