Comment(by pracine):

 I would suggest anything done in raster space (i.e. raster with raster or
 geometries converted to raster before processing) like ST_Intersects(0,
 ST_Intersection(), ST_Union(), etc... to be named ST_IntersectsAsRaster(),
 ST_IntersectionAsRaster(), ST_UnionAsRaster() or  so it is clear what is
 happening inside and they still stick to their geometry sister functions.
 This brake a bit the idea of seemless operators but I think we have no
 choice.
