Would it be possible to specify the required behavior using 
std::uppercase/nouppercase manipulators? I'm thinking of an additional 
overload that works the way std::nothrow already does in certain 
language constructs. This would of course mean that the default should 
be lowercase, which I'd presume is the default for hex output on streams 
as well.
