Description

If you create two aliases and rename the second one to the same name as the first, it is allowed by the GUI but obviously undesirable. Creating a new alias with the same name as an existing alias is prevented as expected.

Bug is present on 2.1.x, 2.2.x and still on 2.3.

I don't have a system setup with 2.3 just yet. I looked at the processing and the new bootstrap code still seems to pass across 'id' like before, and:
$a_aliases = &$config['aliases']['alias'];
looks to have the same structure as previously.
So I expect that the same validation loop from 2.2.* will work in 2.3
Hmmm - what is the trick?

I synchronized my VM again and now it worked. Somehow it must not have picked up this change the first try.
