I think the supposition is invalid.  I've seen plenty of legit newsletters which repeat the same URL 
multiple times.

There's also a number of issues:

- checking for the same exact URL is open to easy circumvention, either random hostnames or ?
id=%RNDCHAR, etc.
- limiting to the hostname part is open to the same issue and will FP like mad
- limiting to domain is just going to FP like mad

So I think we can test for same URL, but I think if it's useful now, it won't be after we add it as a rule.

It's be pretty easy in Util::uri_list_canonify() to count the number of duplicates, and/or come up with 
data about how many were listed 1 time, 2 times, 3 times, etc.
