shelves in subversion

I have seen on the net that some people have added a new folder in addition to the standard trunk/tags/branches in SVN repsoitories, called shelves. These shelves are meant for "personal branches", that is a branch you make to be able to work in peace and quiet with your own stuff, and then merge this with trunk (or whatever) when you have finished. The idea here being that you can commit non compiling code at will, not disturbing others, while having the benefit that the code is under version control. Are there any "official" views on the usage of shelves in Svn, or any best-practice available?
