I just tried to create 2 accounts in gmail with the same name and is working 
just fine. 
I also tried the mentioned scenarios on the iPhone phonebook (though not sure 
if it's the best phonebook behavior to compare with) - it doesn't enforce any 
of the above.

IMO we should not enable this constraints (will also introduce overhead on 
creating new entry / importing from csv or gmail - phonebook entries will have 
to be searched and compared for each)
