Doesn't seem to me that asking for the collation of a list is very
sensible, so I don't see a problem with that.

Returning InvalidOid in such a case would be the *wrong answer*, because
it would presumably lead the code to conclude that nothing within the
list has a collation, which ain't necessarily so.
