You'll have to ask Dave and Ken. Pop them an email on mason-users.

It depends on your needs. In the example, the "Column" is editable in
the UI, IIRC. But you don't have to design your elements that way.
As an example, in the recent work I've done for Macworld, they have a
top nav and a left nav and a right column with advertising. All of
these are created via server-side includes, and are not editable in the
UI. This allows them to remain consistent across the site, and
updatable from a single location (a template that generates an SSI or a
static SSI document managed as a Media asset).
But other folks out there have set it up so that an editor *can* edit a
left nav or equivalent component, say by ordering the appearance of
subelements. It all depends on the needs of your site and the documents
you manage. As a rule of thumb, I try to provide in editable elements
only what an editor needs to actually edit in a story, and handle
navigation and such in separate SSIs and such.
