It is a nice idea. However, the planner gets the join the wrong way round:
select distinct
case when n = 1 then id1 else id2 end,
case when n = 1 then id2 else id1 end
FROM (
select
l1.id AS id1,
l2.id AS id2
FROM
location l1,
location l2
WHERE
l1.id <> l2.id
AND l1.objectid = l2.objectid
AND l1.start <= l2.end
AND l2.start <= l1.end
AND l1.start <= l2.start
) AS a,
(values (1), (2)) b(n);

The outer nested join has the VALUES as the main loop, and the complicated
join as the leaf. So, the complicated overlap-finding join gets run twice.
Oh, there's also the great big sort and unique, but I think I can get rid
of that.
