Postponing to a future release.

In change https://git.eclipse.org/r/#/c/128206/ somewhat related functionality is being introduced, although some further work is needed to support it entirely.
To quote Gábor:
"To support exact-instanceof queries over such a tabular index host, we just need to make the metacontext aware of the exact instances type (e.g. exact instance implies transitive instance), an almost trivial task. Afterward, PQueries are free to include type constraints using this king of input key.
In case of the "regular" EMF base indexer, we need to actually extend the instance store + statistics store to be able to contain exact-instance information, and actually gather+maintain it from the model. That is somewhat more work."

Description
Right now, the query language (and runtime) can only check whether a selected object is instance of an EClass, but there is no built-in support to describe that a class has exactly the type of an EClass. I know such a constraint can be described in most cases using negative pattern calls, but that is clumsy and in some cases impossible (e.g. if the metamodel is extended, but the queries should not depend on the extended metamodel).
As described in https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php?t=rview&goto=1746810#msg_1746810 there are some need for this. Given this task should not be too hard, we should consider it.
