Comment:

 I'm a bit nervous this change might cause subtle backwards
 incompatibilities in case someone is relying on a redundant `order_by()`
 to reevaluate the queryset. I wonder if you can make your reasoning any
 more persuasive than "I see no reason against it." The reasons against it
 I see:
 1. additional complexity
 2. inconsistency with other queyset methods (e.g. should any of them also
 try to detect if they are applied redundantly?)

 I'll leave it open for opinions from ORM experts.
