Comment (by jgelens):

 @akaariai
 * Added a docstring to add_distinct_fields.
 * If you specify distinct(field_list) multiple times it will overwrite the
 previous one. This is the intended behavior.
 * The fields in DISTINCT ON are always in the select list. I guess your
 explanation can't happen. If it does could you explain further and give
 some examples?
 * I discussed the true_or_false argument removal with Russell and Alex
 during the DjangoCon in Amsterdam this year. As it's a undocumented
 feature and we couldn't find any usage of it on the web, we decided to
 remove the argument. It's a weird argument anyway ;) .
