In the Language Structure chapter, Identifiers section (e.g. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/identifiers.html), we're indeed not saying that an identifier may contain numbers but may not consist only of numbers. We should add that information, possibly to the list of restrictions given in that section.

Adding this to legal-identifiers section: Identifiers may begin with a digit but unless quoted may not consist solely of digits.
