The problem with a shower filling your toilet tank is the amount of water ... The average shower uses what 20-30 gallons of water, I'm assuming. Lets even say 10 gallons for arguments sake. x2 people is 20 gallons. Your average toilet uses 1.6 gpf, so you would have to flush your toilet 10 times a day to use up that water or have a way for the excess water to flow out again.

While a good idea, it may be better suited for public restroom use than individual homes.
