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

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.
