R: Re: R: Re: R: Re: Weird EXECUTE ... USING behaviour

The documentation says (also in v8.5) "These symbols refer to values supplied in the USING clause".
"values"and not "variable name or reference". This leads to the useful feature mentioned a line later in the same page.
Once you have a value replaced you can avoid the restrictions you now mention on v8.5.

What's the right place to submit proposals?

but as you note it was just a relocation of a comment that appeared
elsewhere for at least two years before that (and even then, it was
just documenting behavior that had existed since day one).
