You appear to be hoping that a unique index would constrain a column to
contain at most one null entry.  It doesn't work like that, and I
strongly urge you to reconsider what you're using null for.  I think you
are in for a world of hurt, well beyond this one particular point,
because the SQL spec's semantics for null are not designed around the
idea that it represents a single distinguishable value.  What it
represents is "unknown".
