Can I force an inspection error on duplicate function?

Is it possible to trigger an inspection error for an identical functions defined at the same scope/block level?

Here is a contrived example:

#!/usr/bin/env python

def foo(bar):
        print("1\t%s" % bar)
def foo(bar):
        print("2\t%s" % bar)
def foo(bar):
        print("3\t%s" % bar)

foo('bar')


Right now the code analysis is green and reports "no problems found".  Instead I was expecting the analysis to be yellow with a warning about the duplicated function.

If I need to submit a YouTrack for an enhancement request, please let me know.

Cheers,
Rob

BTW, we've got a code base built up from a couple of kings of Copy/Paste.  :-(

At the moment PyCharm does not provide such an inspection. Feel free to file a YouTrack issue.
