A fair point. Though it looks like list_union is used in only about 3
distinct places, and two of those are list_union(NIL, blah) to simply
remove dups from a single list. The third place is the cartesian-product
expansion of grouping sets, which uses list_union_int to remove
duplicates - changing the order there will give slightly user-surprising
but not actually incorrect results.
Presumably list_concat_unique should be considered to guarantee that it
preserves the relative order of the two lists and of the non-duplicate
items in the second list?
