While going through some integration activities for SCCM 2012, I found that the Full Software Import transform maps uses the Global table as destination. I've been searching high and low but I can't figure out what the Global table is used for.

That transform map is erroneous then.
There is a Global (global) table in the system, but it is never used to hold data, and it is never inherited by any other table. There is no single root table for the whole system.
The Global table is only there as a way to chose 'Global' in a table choice list. For example, the business rule's table field. To make a 'global' business rule, you need to point to the 'Global' table. It tells the system that the business rule is global, but that global table isn't used for anything else.
