Submitting same project to several funding agencies

When you write a grant application, you are asked whether this project is/will be submitted to any other funding agency. If you are willing to submit to a couple of funding agencies in parallel - how does this influence the decision to fund the project or not? Does anyone have such experience?

The main reason this question is asked is so that if both agencies love it and want to fund your work, you need to work with the program officers to cut the budget so they are not funding identical work twice (double dipping).
