Not sure I am able to add all of them. &, * look rather similar to
unary operator I added.

Documentation is accessible at libs/type_traits/doc/html/index.html in
the archive or in the sandbox.

It will be a shame if some operators, for which the trait can be defined, dont have it. Have you take a look to ConceptTraits? Maybe you can adapt the implementation?

Oh I see them now on the reference documentation. I was looking for a section that explains the motivation and the list of new traits that need to be reveiwed.
