Follow-up Comment #2, bug #36463 (project octave):

Converting single or {u,}int{8,16,32,64} types to double when using sparse
matrices would be inconsistent with what happens for full matrices and
scalars.

For example, try


class (uint32 (42) + rand (3))
class (single (42) + rand (3))


Given that we don't have single or integer sparse matrices, I think the right
thing to do is throw an error.  If you want the conversion, you will have to
do it explicitly.
