The overlap operator only concern multi dimensional data types I
think, it seems to me we can use the term "range".

So whart about applying semantics to strategy numbers for RANGE
OPERATOR CLASS ... GIST ...

I'm not sure how scalable we want to be there, so maybe those
(options, range, ...) would be better, but the flexibility Will
certainly not be that good as each option Will require unique strategy
numbers...
