If you have two entries with the same UID then you don't know which one it'll pick.. so when you search for a user during free busy you don't know if it'll return the user account or a group.. Same thing when doing ACLs..

I would recommend strongly against doing this... even if DarwinCalendar server does have some way to determine which to pick.. it'll only cause  confusion to humans down the line.
