Given two slists, "current_netgroups" and "valid_netgroups", I want to
construct a new slists where

  $(netgroups_to_remove) = $(current_netgroups) - $(valid_netgroups)

  $(netgroups_to_add) = $(valid_netgroups) - $(current_netgroups)

Is there currently a simple way to do this?

If this isn't easy, I think it would make for a nice addition to the
list of special functions, e.g.

  "netgroups_to_remove" slist => slist_difference("current_netgroups",
"valid_netgroups");
  "netgroups_to_add "   slist => slist_difference("valid_netgroups",
"current_netgroups");

Functions for calculating slist intersections and for removing duplicate
values may also be useful, generally speaking.
