It's designed to represent the internal machinations of global politics, and how (to most people at least) it can seem indecipherable. As the titles form up to the word "Global", it represents how the BBC can translate such incomprehensibility into the English language, the de facto broadcast language for international news, the essence of the BBC.
The strident strings playing in the background represent the strife that exists within the political structures of the world, as well as the strife that is immediately visible and overarches a good proportion of the world. Simultaneously, it represents the urgency of the news that BBC World News is presenting to the viewer.
The words "with Jon Sopel" that appear at the end of the titles is a representation of the host of the show, Jon Sopel, and how he will be part of the programme called "Global", and yet is also a prominent part of the programme; more prominent than other presenters of the various strands that exist within BBC World News.
Jon Sopel's visage and embodiment appearing after the titles is an illustration of how he is presenting the programme in not only vision, but in voice, such is the medium of television. It also demonstrates to the viewer that if the BBC can tell the truth in the titles, it will also be presenting fact to the viewer in its news content.
What do the Global titles show? It just looks like the camera zooming around space with untextured pipes from Google Sketchup.

Is that a regular show? Are language services making regular use of the 'main' studios?
English isn't the only language to come from Studio B. Here's BBC Persia http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TmotCl8ngic

I think its a one off. But BBC Afrique have made interesting use of the Newsroom Cam

in fact recently a few of the World Service websites have dropped their 60 Second Bulletins in favour of a full 15 Minute Bulletin.

Update: Yup, it's what BBC News Fix mentions.
[A new music sting is starting to be heard on the breakfillers (the ones with presenter's portrait to advert their branded shows), which before this used the TOTH countdown music and I'd commented it was confusing.]
I think the new music has a somewhat merry jingle kind of beat. Not bad IMO as lead up to bottom and top of hours, compared to previously.

Horribly out of place music, IMO.
I've noticed that they have changed the music played on the 'Next' graphic from the end of the countdown music to a new soft piece that is now being used instead
Horribly out of place music, IMO.
