Not if AD users come via a trust.

If you are thinking of multihomed systems that 'join' 2 domains, well,
that is a messy situation, it is debatable what is the right thing to
do.

Debatable though, what domain 'owns' the security properties of the
machine ? 2 domains might have completely different and even conflicting
rules.

I am not sure, but I think it is not a desirable thing to document. It
carries way too many breaches of trust for both domains.
