Tomek Rękawek commented on SLING-7524:
--------------------------------------
[~jebailey] - thanks for noticing this. Indeed, the name is a big misleading
and the method has different semantics than the jQuery unique(). I'm not sure
if we can change the implementation here - I think the global unique() would
require sorting the collection, which would break the "laziness" and I'd like
to avoid this.
How about deprecating the unique() and renaming it to, I don't know,
deduplicate()?

> the function for unique does not match the contract a unique function usually
> provides including JQuery, rather it's providing a sequential deduplicator.
