Juergen, Andy,

Thanks for your reply

I agree with your statements as long as we consider two sources for the same 
information/instance. In this case, my understanding is that the same key value 
is intentionally assigned by the two sources to indicate that they are 
representing the same information/instance and only one instance needs to be 
applied within the operational DS

The issue we are trying to solve is slightly different. We have two different 
instances from different sources and both of them need to be applied within the 
operational DS, but unfortunately they have got assigned the same key value ...

And for a robust solution, it is good to have an explicit definition of which 
entry takes priority if there is a name clash.
