ROTFL.  I really should have said I'm not gonna go try to find it. In 
fact who knows whether CSV is an actual papered, defined standard.  It 
could very well be a hack that somebody came up with back in the 50s and 
has hung around ever since.

First thing I found when googling CSV standard is this:

https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4180

Which says it is in fact undocumented.

Oh well.
