There is no way to get a Tcl function to return NULL, since TCL has no
concept of NULL.  So, no, sadly, you cannot get an SQLite function
implemented in Tcl to return NULL.

I imagine one could write an SQL function in C that returns NULL,
though, right?  What if the API included a function null(x) that
returns NULL if x is the "nullvalue" string specified with
[$db nullvalue], and x otherwise?
