Ok, let's vote on a name then:

operator constraints
operator exclusion constraints
operator conflict constraints
conflict operator constraints
operator index constraints
index constraints
generalized index constraints
something else?

Right now, I like "conflict operator constraints" for the long name
(e.g. feature title, long description in docs), and "operator
constraints" for short (e.g. in the code and some places in the docs).
