Description
When two views have the same name (by accident), Django does not detect or report this.
I think Django should raise an error, so the developer can easily find his mistake and correct it.

This is a little ambiguous: if you mean having 2 view functions with the same name it's not really possible for us to detect this, various static analysis tools (such a pyflakes) can help you here. If you mean having 2 URLs with the same name this is completely valid, and used by many people, so we certainly can't consider it an error. As such marking as wontfix, if you meant something *besides* these two, feel free to reopen.
