Re: [SQL] possible bug?

>From the manual for CLUSTER:

"The table is actually copied to a temporary table in index order, then
renamed back to the original name. For this reason, all grant permissions
and other indexes are lost when clustering is performed."

So this is not a bug in the sense that no one knows about it, but it's an
unfortunate side-effect for sure.
