ES20 cards do not have vlan local significance, while toasters are
capable of doing it, you guys opted not to do it (perhaps due to
toaster+microcode evilness when compared to ezcip+c?)

giga2/0/1.42 
  encap dot1q 42
giga2/0/2.42
  encap dot1q 42

Is not and will not be (non-technical reasons) possible in ES20.
OP should rather consider ES+ cards, which are completely different
cards and will do this.
Sure you can workaround this through EVC in ES20 but that is another
bag of worms. I would strongly advice against anyone buying ES20,
as ES+ costs the same.

(Of course you still can't escape the 4k VLAN limit in the platfor)
