Re: Duplicate fields are allowed!
Lawrence,
are you talking about modeling? If so, yes, you can have duplicate names, since it must be possible to edit names without constantly having a check running (resource intensive) and to allow easy changes (instead of: "you already use this name, please edit <here> or chose a different one").
The commercial editor of MySQL Workbench has a validation module, which also checks duplicate names. In the OSS edition you have to do this manually. But it should be easy since the server will tell you when you forward engineer/synchronize your model.
