Hm, the problem is that for the other prefixes the table entries then
encode the concrete type that is to be expected. We could not do this
here because the type depends on the requested width. So we would then
need to "repair" that type after the loop. A `switch` to do that would
look substantially similar to what is there, now. Do you think that
would be better?

Thanks
