Yup, it's a fairly standard feature set for all in one PMICs, WM835x and
WM831x are also examples of this.

Yes, in this context the system rail is the supply input to the

used directly by the chips.

Some can even brown themselves out going full pelt with the full 500mA
supply if there's no battery to supplement it :/
