One implementation can be found at:

Combining this with existing quaternions and octonions could be, at worst,
an interesting exercise. I admit I am tempted, if for no other reason then
to test my own understanding of template specializations, possibly traits,
etc.

As for everyday, practical uses, initially they may be restricted to some
areas of mathematical physics (some theories of gravity and possible
numerical simulations) but, given that we already have quaternions and
octonions, I see no harm in that.
