On a side note, this is common in academia (particularly for married couples), and often seen as a negative thing there. The downside is that employers often expect two full-time employees for the price of one. My wife and I both have similar skillsets and looked at applying to a shared tenure-track position. We didn't for exactly that reason.

On the other hand, I think i could be quite nice if employers manage expectations and don't expect to get 2 for 1.
