Swiss numerical format (war einmal: What is ` (U+0060) for?)

As an aside:

Are there good (authorative) references on the so called
swiss numerical format with its peculiar thousand separator?

I only know about a manual shipped with some Aldus software product
as a reference. I own several books printed in Switzerland and they
show the typical swiss orthography (lack of �), but all show one of
the two usual german number formats (. or \, (thin space) as thousands
separator).
