which really should be in desktop/toolboxes imo, and not in with the shell. 
i'll fix that right now and then they will be in:

kde-workspace/plasma/desktop/toolboxes/paneltoobox.*

this code is in desktop/shell/ in the PanelView and PanelController classes.

in PanelView, it connects to the containment this way:

    connect(containment, SIGNAL(toolBoxToggled()), this, 
SLOT(togglePanelController()));

so when the containment says its toolbox was toggled (e.g. when clicked) then 
PanelVIew::togglePanelController runs which shows a PanelController. 
PanelController is what would get replaced by your QML.
