If these behaviors were really "frivolous" this might fly, but I don't
think the majority of users will hold still for the removal of either
GROUP BY 1 or ORDER BY 1. They're embedded in popular usage, and at
least one of them was in the standard not so long ago. Moreover,
despite the request that started this thread, the "correct" behavior
for these syntaxes is utterly useless.
