Your question seems unspecific, but we now have the possibility of
standardizing canonical extension types (which are, of course, optional
to implement and support):

That’s a possibility. Do we consider officially support them?

I'm not sure what you're actually proposing here. A new extension type
perhaps?

Hi,
We need to have really large integers (with 128, 256 and 512 bits) as well
as decimals (up to at least decimal1024) because they do actually exist in
crypto / web3 space.
See https://docs.rs/primitive-types/latest/primitive_types/ for an
example
of what needs to be supported.
If accepted we can implement the types for C++/Python and Rust.
Thanks,
Ian
