Hi James, 

For the general question (not related to my original post) of using one subnet 
on multiple VLANs, perhaps some extreme cases may exist. I have not researched 
any case myself but here is a quote from a book ("CCIE Routing and Switching 
Exam Certification Guide, Fourth Edition" by Denise Donohue, Rus Healy, Wendell 
Odom) that hints to this: 

"Also, although not typically done, you can design a network to use one subnet 
on multiple VLANs, and use routers with proxy ARP enabled to forward traffic 
between hosts in those VLANs."

Just thought this may sound interesting to you. Here is also some related 
discussion: https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3105884

I was partially under the influence :) of the above sources when I posted my 
question. 

Al.
