From their twitter, "Our best guess: non-interactive. Read-only status. Not "widgets" per se."

I have a hard time believing they built this before checking if it would make the app store. That's at least the vibe I get from this tweet.

Right, if you follow the conversation, they also replied this afterwords, "But at WWDC they couldn't tell us either way! "Submit it and find out", was the advice. So we did."

> 10.4 - Apps that create alternate desktop/home screen environments or simulate multi-app widget experiences will be rejected

Its not a multi-app interface: just a single one displaying multiple data items.
