I should have added that allowing mixed types for values (e.g.
as discussed in 
 http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2013-April/125322.html)
is far more problematic for database storage than non-unique
values are.  Nearly all databases (Sqlite being an exception)
don't allow different types in a column.  (Not sure if mixed
types is still an open issue or not...)
