Writable CTE queries

I was in attendance at David Fetter's "Writeable CTEs: The Next Big
Thing" talk in Paris last November. He said that they (by which I
assume he meant himself and Marko, the author of writeable CTEs in
postgres) were trying to get them into the SQL standard.

Are Writable CTE queries defined by the SQL standard, or are they and extension?

They are cool, and i hope, in 8.5 ;-)
