Another 'roof rattle'

2007 Combi
Did the tape around the sunroof opening as well as around the rear dome light opening and still had a noise in the headliner. Took down the rear dome light and felt around.
Outboard of the rear dome light – on the passenger side only – there is a piece of material stuck – not too well – to the topside of the headliner. This material has dozens of thimble-shaped plastic protrusions, ½ inch or so in diameter. On my vehicle the material is coming loose from the headliner and strikes a piece of metal associated with the sunroof when going over bumps.
Took a picture of the material and asked about it at dealer: Not shown in parts catalog. Tech says it belongs there (But why just on one side? And what is the purpose of the material?)
For now I stuffed some foam rubber between the foam rubber and the metal it hits. Seems to have eliminated the noise.
