No, there is nothing in Toad to support them at this time. I did a quick look in
the documentation for ‘create index’ and didn’t find
‘nosegement’ anywere. Finally, I googled and found that this
apparently is an undocumented feature. After reading some of their
characteristics (not showing up in data dictionary views, for example) I think
we’d be better off supporting this only in the editor. Of course, if there
is great opposition to my opinion, we can add it anyway.

Ok, I'm not blind then!

I've just checked through the docs for 8i, 9i, 10g and 11g - as you have
found, not a sausage!
As for the nosegment clause on create index, it's been around since at
least 8i - I've just created one in an 8174 database with no problems.

Looks that way.

Ok, I can live with that. No worries.
Of course, if there is great opposition to my opinion, we can add it
anyway.
The other slight problem is the need to alter session set
"_use_nosegment_indexes" = true before the CBO will tell you if they are
any good or not. And that's an "underscore" parameter .....

not showing up in data dictionary views, for example
Just from the perspective of a cautious developer (I tend not to use new
features till they’re in at least their second database version),
I’d say I’d avoid that feature from just that one … err
… property.
Call it a personal quirk, but when I query up the data dictionary views, I like
to see the objects that I’ve created.

They have been around since 8i.

dictionary views, I like to see the objects that I've created.
In 8i, they show up in DBA_OBJECTS and DBA_INDEXES. After 8i, they only
show up in DBA_OBJECTS.
CREATE TABLE norm(a number, b number);
CREATE INDEX norm_a ON norm(a) NOSEGMENT;
-- One row selected.
SELECT * FROM dba_objects WHERE object_name = 'NORM_A';
-- Nothing selected. Except in 8i where one row is selected.
SELECT * FROM dba_indexes WHERE index_name = 'NORM_A';
-- Nothing selected.
SELECT * FROM dba_segments WHERE segment_name = 'NORM_A';
-- Nothing selected.
SELECT * FROM dba_extents WHERE segment_name = 'NORM_A';
DROP TABLE norm;

Something sticks in my head that OEM uses them for statement tuning, but
don't quote me on that.
I should be doing my portion of my annual review now...

That's about right. It's either OEM or the SQL Tuning Advisor thingy
built in to OEM (?? I'm not sure, I use Toad!)
Still undocumented at 11gR2 as far as I can see. Maybe they don't work -
plus - using them depends on an undocumented underscore parameter
_use_nosegment_indexes - so until that loses the underscore, they will
remain undocumented.
