I guess multicolumn BRIN behaves similarly to B-tree or GiST. But I'm
no expert, so I need someone knowledgeable to confirm this. If the
following wording is OK, I will update the patch.

A multicolumn BRIN index can be used with query conditions that
involve any subset of the index's columns. Conditions on additional
columns restrict the entries returned by the index, but the condition
on the first column is the most important one for determining how much
of the index needs to be scanned.
