Bad form to apply to both Equity Research and IBD SA positions?

Hey all,

Do you think its bad form to apply to both equity research and investment banking at the same firm? This is for a SA position at a middle market. The reason I'm asking is that I've read that its bad to apply to both S&T and IBD.. so I'm not sure if this holds for ER and IBD.
