Hmm. actually, turns out it's "only" bound in the various lisps and other programming languages major modes (including the scratch buffer and c-mode, btw), so you're right that it's not a _true_ global binding (I just spend most of my emacs time in such modes...). But it's very long-standing as "indent expression" AFAIK, was in emacs 19. It's one of those "pseudo global" bindings where the keypress does a conceptually similar thing in many modes - in lisp mode, indent-pp-sexp, in c mode, c-indent-exp, in perl mode, perl-indent-exp, and so on.
