joint account overdraft

I am just about to get a joint account with my girlfriend for mortgage and bills etc...
i doubt there is, but are there any joint bank accounts that have a free overdraft feature. This would be good as money is going straight in and out and we don't particularly want to leave a float sitting in the account.
are there any particular features to look for in joint accounts?

Joint accounts mean joint debts if you use an overdraft.
If you split up then you cannot turn round and say to the bank - here's my 50% of the overdraft my partner is responsible for the rest.
It is called joint and several liability.0
