It occurred to me that we could also rename the
function uniq(), or unique(), after its Unix
counterpart, but then I though better of it.  As one
of the folks who was making a bit of noise about the
groupby() semantics before, I'm really fine with the
name now that the docs make it a little more clear how
it behaves.
