Comment (by mdavis):

 "Supports 3D" has a somewhat broad meaning. In this case it means that Z
 values are preserved.  However, the function uses a 2D distance metric to
 determine points to remove.  This should be made clear in the
 documentation.

 A mode that uses a 3D distance metric seems like a nice addition.  It
 could be invoked via a flag to this function, or perhaps via a new
 function `ST_RemoveRepeatedPointsZ`?
