Could not find any documentation about this setting.

It is something only used internally by Sierra Chart. It is not a setting that can be used by a user.

As far as I am developing a DTC Protocol server which provides custom symbols data can this setting be useful in this case?

No. You would have to use what is documented here:

PopulatingSymbolList is what is needed, but there is no way to specify symbol category in SECURITY_DEFINITION_RESPONSE. All returned symbols go to Other category and it looks like a mess :( Would be create to be able to specify symbol category somehow in this scenario.
