From what I am seeing online, it looks like the airbag for this zone deploys from the top of the dash? It appears to break open the top to deploy? The reason I ask is on another video I watched it almost looked like it was deploying from under the glove box and inflated upwards.

I am asking because I was looking to mount some flat items on the accent trim above the glove box and I don't want my passenger punched in the face by a foreign object.

People make cracks about removing crash bars, but then have a million missiles floating around the cabin in various forms. I secure everything by some means. Even my get home bag wears a seatbelt.

Gee I hope it does not deploy from under the glove box area...that would mean I'd need to remove the ball bearings, crushed glass, road spikes and nails I've packed into it... OR I could just label it

I've had that area apart. It goes up through the dash. Mounting things that stick above the trim piece above the glove box might be a bad idea. So as long as they don't stick up too high you should be good.
