I have already renamed parameter from "surjective" to "injective".
But I am ok to do do one more renaming to "projection" if it will be
considered as better alternative.
From my point of view, "projection" seems to be clearer for people
without mathematical background,
but IMHO this term is overloaded in DBMS context. The irony is that in
Wikipedia "projection" is explained using "surjection" term:)
