Something I've implemented before would be the ability to define a taxonomy like post formats, I don't think it'd be hard to port over so I'll give it a go at some point but let's see what you think of the potential implementation, using regular taxonomy args:

register_taxonomy( 'name', 'post', [
   'terms' => [ 'slug' => 'Name', 'slug2' => 'Name 2' ], // Default terms
   'default' => 'slug', // mimics behaviour of 'Uncategorized'
   'multiple' => false, // Prevents selection of more than one term, sets walker to radio
   'editable' => false, // makes the terms uneditable via the admin, code only - if true forces 'terms' to exist & prevents their removal
] );

Yeah I'd be happy to implement this if it worked well.

The existing exclusive argument was designed to work like your multiple argument but it doesn't enforce anything when the terms are assigned.

The editable argument could prevent editing/deleting terms via the newly granular terms capabilities in 4.7+.

Doing some housekeeping. While this sounds like a useful feature it's not something I've found a need for myself, so I'm closing this off.
