Yes, iPeng has a few Apps of it's own.
With the exception of Twitter they are essentially web site links that
open in iPeng's browser although Facebook specifically does some
additional handling, too.
They are meant to play links from web sites on your Squeezebox so you
can use this Facebook "App" to play those Spotify links your friends
post (for example).

It's been there for a while under "App Gallery->iPen Apps".
The reason it now shows up by default is threefold:

1. There is no longer a registration menu for Facebook. Sharing on
Facebook, Twitter etc. is now done through the standard iOS control in
iPeng 7 (knowing the user has iOS 7 helps sooooo much with some things)
so the whole Facebook authorization code is gone.

2. Logitech discontinued the Facebook App so some users (it had quite a
number of them) might want a replacement and not everybody always visits
the App Gallery.

3. It didn't really make sense to add another configuration menu for the
Facebook item, now that the main menu is fully configurable and you can
hide anything you like.
