Working on self-join removal in the thread [1] nearby, I stuck into the 
problem, which made an additional argument to work in this new direction 
than a couple of previous ones.
With indexing positions in the list of equivalence members, we make some 
optimizations like join elimination more complicated - it may need to 
remove some clauses and equivalence class members.
For changing lists of derives or ec_members, we should go through all 
the index lists and fix them, which is a non-trivial operation.
