We don't actually have any of these mechanisms. They wouldn't be bad
things to have but I don't think we should gate adding new types of
indexes on adding them. In particular, the index could just hard code
a value for these parameters and having them be parameterized is
clearly better even if that doesn't produce all the warnings or
rebuild things automatically or whatever.
