Because I am currently not doing a transformation as described in the note I
decided to simply discard additional "x" characters. I still have a question
about the hexadecimal number though. Because the language I am working in
has a char limit of U+FFFF, I decided to limit my the input to the same
number. Again, I have the potential of multiple leading "0" characters, but
I again discard them. Does this sound reasonable?

Thanks for letting me think out loud...
