I add sauteed mushrooms in the sauce and oregano in the bread crumbs. I also haven't gotten a chance to try out this variation, but the sauce in the recipe comes out kind of watery, and I think it would be vastly improved by adding in a can or two of tomato sauce.
Yeah, I'm not so much on the chunky sauces for parmigiana, for that very reason. That recipe does look really good though, and I love the inclusion of the kalamata olives. It's a great spin on the anchovies you'll often find in sicilian style chunky sauces.
It's simple but tastes good and the texture doesn't wrestle with the chicken. I'd love to take that sauce from what you posted and throw it over some spaghetti on the side of the parmigiana though, I'm sure the flavors are incredible. I'm growing a fixation with button portabellos, I'm curious what tossing a sauteed bit of those in would do. Do you have a favorite mushroom for this, or do you just use the plain white button mushrooms? I can imagine bellas and button mushrooms would both be pretty darn good.

Personally, out of laziness, I tend to just use this sauce: http://iamaneviltaco.livejournal.com/616.html?mode=reply
