Did it several times. ShowSummary has code similar to the folowing:

    <&| /Widgets/TitleBox, title => loc('The Basics'),
        class => 'ticket-info-basics',
    &><& /Ticket/Elements/ShowBasics, Ticket => $Ticket &></&>

Copy it. See that ShowBasics appears twice on the page. Copy
ShowBasics file. Adjust, see changes and so on.

May be you're talking about menu. Are you?

If you need some sort of editor for custom data then for sure you'll
need to write Mason, HTML and perl code.
