It's already a feature. Problem is with companies that have multiple URL's for the same page, like NYT.com

yes and no. www.yahoo.com and yahoo.com still isn't treated as a dupe even though both URLs point to the same page (it's only a consistent 4 character difference), and I don't know how the same URL was able to be re-submitted without it becoming a dupe:

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=183903

http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=177270

I'll probably start submitting links twice from now on
