The user story you are describing there is inevitably not satisfiable. At the very least, not every user can randomly create distributions with base paths colliding with existing distributions. I believe the answer to that is namespaces, where users can create entities in their namespaces that they can also see. BTW, the namespace could be used to decide upon a certain group permission to be added to new resources. In the global namespace, only an administrator can create entities. If you lift, the uniqueness of names in a certain content-type, you are definitely breaking the ansible usecase.
