It's only a minor efficiency hack; don't get too tense about avoiding dups.
(We don't bother to check for dup catcache-inval entries at all...)
The only thing I'd suggest you need to preserve is the business about
invalidating catcache before relcache; again that's just an efficiency
hack, but it seems simple enough to be worth doing.
