Seems to me the v4 & v6 options can be simplied to remove length_2 as the option length can just be 1 + ((# of addresses) * (address size, ie 4 or 16)).

Or is the intent that if more types are defined, that the data might be: type-1, length-1-2, address list for type[, type-2, length-2-2, address list for type, [...]]?

We should also explore whether type field is needed; why wouldn't a new set of options be defined for a future type? This document is titled ANQP so what other types might there be and would they still be ANQP?
