Research direction
Start by locating the Rust module bindings code that defines FilterableValue and processes BTree, unique, and primary_key index declarations. Trace how index key columns are validated at compile time. Done means declarations using non-FilterableValue columns produce a hard compile-time error, with existing valid index declarations still accepted.
