a common part being defined as have a common value.
This is true for most designs but will produce an
incorrect output if two or more parts with the same
value have different footprints, tolerances, voltage
rating, etc. Also usefull if the following fields
are edited:
FIELD1 - manufacture
FIELD2 - manufacture part number
FIELD3 - distributor part number
Check in code for now, doc later.

+eeschema
* commiting my changes to allow multiple instances of a given schematic file within
a hierarchy:
** internally, m_currentScreen has been replaced with m_currentSheet,
which is a list or 'path' of screens. The path of screens is used to
generate
a series of timestamps, which is converted to flat component reference via
a look-up
table in the schematic files.
** this means that m_currentScreen is no longer used -- use GetScreen().
** GetScreen is virtual, as some of the dialogs keep around a WinEDA_BaseScreen
pointer.
** all sub-sheets in a given schematic must have different names to generate a
meaningful netlist.
