This is definitely datasource specific, so it sounds like you want this bug
report to apply to the ASCII datasource. For the healpix and the new FITS
datasources, I solve this problem by simply prepending an absolute field
number to the text of the field name.
For example, if I have a FITS file with 2 tables like this:
Table 1 columns : <Sample> <Angle> <Data>
Table 2 columns : <Sample> <Angle> <Data>
Then the resulting fieldlist text strings looks like this:
"1 - Sample"
"2 - Angle"
"3 - Data"
"4 - Sample"
"5 - Angle"
"6 - Data"
So the absolute field position is part of the text label. This ensures
fieldname uniqueness.
