That's because it isn't spelled out in any RFC I'm aware of.

draft-ietf-dnsop-inaddr-required-07.txt is the one you'll be looking for.

Despite the draft name, it does NOT say "PTR required" - that got beaten out of the document pretty early. Instead, it talks about what they're good for and why you might want to install them.
