This reminds me of something i've been wondering about for quite some
time. Why is it that one has to write "cluster <index> on <table>",
and not "cluster <table> on <index>"?
To me, the second variant would seem more logical, but then I'm
not a native english speaker...
I'm not suggesting that this should be changed, I'm just wondering
why it is the way it is.
