They aren't using pinning, they are using the jump list capabilities.
That's different.
Besides, there was never a programmatic interface for adding to the

Since Microsoft have deprecated the QuickLaunch toolbar, is there a way to
utilise it's replacement and add a shortcut to the 'Pinned to Taskbar' set
