I am not sure how important the release notes part is. However, this
is the second time I see the above problem raise by users, so maybe
improving the error message from .distinct() would be possible. It
could say something like "In 1.4 the args must be strings". If
somebody comes up with good wording for the error message it could be
possible that it will be included in future versions of 1.4.
