I don't think there's any benefit to having both the Primary and
Unique indexes. I don't  know why they ever got in there.

If we take them out of the install scripts, we should also have to
have some additional database migration scripts (for 1.2 old -> 1.2
new, and for 1.2 new -> 2.0). That would complicate matters for people
updating to 2.0, because they would have to choose between two
scripts.

Please note that 2.0 and higher don't have these extra indexes.
