So _this_ is what they're using SproutCore for.

SproutCore is already used for the MobileMe and iWork.com web interfaces. However, it is not the only web app framework Apple uses. Other known projects are Gianduia, Coherent, AdLib, TuneKit and PastryKit.

Nope.

Wow. It's not? That's crazy... it's all custom?

It looks like a rebranded and enhanced Dashcode.

How is that crazy? iOS is orders of magnitude more complicated than some JavaScript.
