It was proposed, in issue 16056, to enhance `make patchcheck` with the
detection of duplicate code names. This triggered the creation of issue 16079.
The script named duplicate_code_names_2.py, in issue 16079, listed about 20
duplicate names among all the non-nested functions, classes or methods in the
whole repository (default branch), mostly duplicated test names. I have
entered an issue for each one of these cases, they are listed in issue 16079.
Yes, this detection can be automated.
