How to find duplicated Objects?

I have trouble to make up my mind how i would script something which searches vor duplicated Objects in a Scene. The Real Live problem is that these objects are real duplicates e.g. in shape and Volume, but not in poly flow and point coordinates.

So how to find these diplicates ? Any Idea?

Compare pointcount, Matrix, basecontainers,
their tags (and the tags basecontainers
and material links) ?

I didn't mean to have a solution, just an idea, but comparing the objects
basecontainers might be a start (if object are of same type
their containers should have the same type of parameters
to compare)

Matrix is the Matrix :) (op->GetMg()) But you said they could
be at different location so it might not be something to use.

Checking their tags would be the same idea (if the tags are
identical or not)
