Aren't all covenants restrictive? Always had this simplistic idea in my head that covenants were restrictive whereas easements were permissive.

No. A covenant not to obstruct a driveway is a restrictive covenant. A covenant to keep a driveway in repair is a positive covenant. However, positive covenants are not generally binding on successors in title to the original covenantor, although there are exceptions and workarounds.

Restrictive Covenants? One of my specialist subjects. I give an enthralling 3 hour seminar on the subject about 10 times a year.
