I would suggest that each attribute should have a checkbox option called "Unique", while editing or creating a class.

It could be used in forms with user registration, where, for example, the intention is to have unique e-mails between users. Because the attribute e-mail is unique, ez Publish will not permit two users with same e-mail addresses to register.

This unique feature for attributes could be used in many other situations.

Actually, eZ Publish by default does not allow registration of multiple accounts using one e-mail address. But also, this is a special type of security, which is embedded in the datatype itself.

I've once commited an extension that sort of does of what you're asking for:
