I will assume (until told otherwise) that we are so far limiting this to values 
all of which are measurements, including for example EDC and Parity.

Currently, the places where data elements are displayed (or summarized) include:
1) in their plugins,
2) in the Overview, and
3) in the Header (which includes Name, DOB, Sex, Allergy Status, Encounter

I am having a hard time to see why to be displaying favourite measurements 
information anywhere other than:

        - in the Overview plugin … Measurements area
        - in the Measurements plugin

both of which could auto-open with whatever has been configured to be the 
"Overview panel"
