I can think of situations where I would want the result to be truncated to 64 bits.

I can think of situations where I would want SQLite to raise an error.

I cannot imagine wanting a floating point result.

We are looking into adding hexadecimal integer literals to SQLite.  In
other words, we are looking to enhance SQLite to understand 0x1234 as
another way of writing 4660.  Hex literals are useful in conjunction with
the bit-wise AND and OR operators (& and |) and in applications that make
use of bit fields.

The question is what to do with hex literals that are larger than 64 bits.
