Forgive me if this is a dumb question but what is running and
controlling the display in those columns?  Are they individual apps or
some sort of plugin or what?  I'm specifically interested in the
middle column but I'm generally curious about the overall architecture
of the menu.

The basic architecture of the m_zone is that there are three columns,
each of which are filled with tiles.

The calender/todo information is read from the Evolution Data Server.

The recent files pane is read from the GTK+ Recent Documents framework,
which uses the Freedesktop desktop bookmark spec[1].

The social panel is read from Mojito[2].

If you want your application to add documents to the middle pane then
you want to look at the GtkRecentManager object in GTK+, or [1] if you
are not using GTK+.
