#4370: Remove ST_ForceRHR
-------------------------+---------------------------
 Reporter:  dbaston      |      Owner:  pramsey
     Type:  enhancement  |     Status:  new
 Priority:  medium       |  Milestone:  PostGIS 3.0.0
Component:  postgis      |    Version:  trunk
 Keywords:               |
-------------------------+---------------------------
 I'd suggest removing `ST_ForceRHR` for PostGIS 3.0, now that
 `ST_ForcePolygonCW` is available. The definition of "right-hand-rule"
 implemented by `ST_ForceRHR` is the opposite of how "right-hand-rule" is
 typically defined, including in specs such as GeoJSON.
