I think it would be an awesome feature if there could be a way to make a field unique that way that if it already exists in the database that it cannot be re-submitted. I don't know how many people would use such a filter but I know that I could think of at least two applications:

  1. Unique URLs (like to a directory like what I run)
  2. Unique members (That way only one submission can be done by the member in a database that only one active record can be allowed)

Obviously I don't expect it to be perfect (domain.com versus domain.com/index.php) but it would help me immensely if I could force certain things to be unique within the database, similar to display names or emails.

Yes!

Say you have a database of cars. Ford is entered as the parent, and Focus is added as the child. You can't enter them again but are free to add other models.

Great idea.

This feature is very import to avoid duplicated database records in databases that users can post content. I am willing to build a wiki database for certain professionals and having more than one record for the same person is really annoying. 

I hope we get this feature soon.
