    _______________________________________________________

Details:

In recent Matlab versions, the `unique` function supports a 'stable' flag. In
this mode, it returns the unique elements in the *original* order, not sorted.
There's also a 'sorted' flag, which is the default.

The same happens with set functions: `union`, `intersect`, `setdiff`,
`setxor`.

Are there any plans to include this behaviour in Octave?

Thanks for your time!
