I believe Andrew is correct - for the "Infrastructure Repository
Databases", e.g. Grid Control/OEM, RMAN and the Metadata Repository for
App Server - Oracle requires Enterprise Edition and does partitioning on
its own tables. I'm pretty sure it does this even if you don't run Grid
Control, but just run basic Standard Edition with Database Control - it
will still internally partition some of the AWR tables. You don't have
to purchase the partitioning option for these purposes.
I better throw in the usual disclaimer here - I am not a lawyer, nor am
I authorized to represent Oracle. All statements here are just my
understanding of the docs. Please consult with your Oracle sales rep
for the official answer.

I have never heard it put that way. My understanding is that it is an
all-or-nothing proposition. I would think Oracle will only use
partitioning if your app "uses" them.

The way I understand it, we dont have to pay extra for the partitioning
option unless our own applications use it (I know its used by Oracle
itself, but that doesnt count).
