Currently if two views are configured to handle the same set of clients, it must be
considered as a configuration error as the second view is not accessible. 

Thus there is no overload of semantics, only an extension.

Defining a new feature with new keywords etc. is just making a complexity out of a simple
thing.

But anyway I have voiced my suggestion, which I believed this list was for.
