Suppose X is a 2-dimensional shift of finite type.  Must there exist a
translation-invariant measure on X that gives every open set a well-defined
Banach density?  (That is: does there exist an invariant measure m such
that any invariant measure that is singular with respect to m has support
not intersecting that of m?)

My guess is "no".  Perhaps someone can point me to an example of a 2-
dimensional SFT that is topologically minimal but not uniquely ergodic
(since that would be the simplest sort of counter-example).
