Nope that's in D7 Pro, started in D5 Ent, initially because that
was the only way to get proper support of parameterized queries for
MS SQL Server.

I've heard too many horror stories and encountered too many nightmare
creatures arising from them to have even a speck of faith in them :/
On the scale of bad programming practice, I rank them right with 'goto'
(the development speed "gains", the maintainance bugs and flexibility
issues being strikingly similar).
