If your ORM framework needs to know about the internals of an index definition or even requires a certain index type,
thenyou should ditch that ORM framework.
Apart from indexes supporting business constraints (e.g. a unique index) neither the application nor the the ORM
frameworkshould care about indexes at all.

The real question is: why do you think you need such an index?
Do you have any performance problems with the existing BTree index? If yes, which problem exactly?
