If you set order to 0 and browse, are all the bob's gone?  I would think
they should be.  And if so the Unique index worked as planed, in that it
considered all the values of bob in whole, lock stock and barrel.  What
you do to one you do to them all.

Just like if you worked on an FKey column and deleted all orderItems
where orderID='bob'

I agree that the  whole concept around "unique" is just miss
represented, and if it used the name "Distinct" it might make some more
sense.  It's really a very funky filter that should be avoided.
