'this' is not an undocumented feature any more than 'using sql to format names' is. 'it' is just a way of using other SQL techniques.

what do you actaully need to know? try:

contatenation operator (mentioned previously) data dictionary (where oracle stores its meta-data) system tables

btw: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/server-sql-mode.html for your MySQL issue describes the PIPES_AS_CONCAT setting. found it by googling on "mysql concatenation operator"
