Isn't this just the manner in which IANA formats their registry? Both 
RFC2327 and RFC4566 both have text along the lines of "An address type 
is only meaningful in the context of a network type, and any 
registration of an address type MUST specify a registered network type, 
or be submitted along with a network type registration."

Given that as part of the registration the applicable nettype must 
already have been given. Isn't all we need is for IANA to reflect this 
information in another column "Registered network type" in the addrtype 
table at SDP parameter registry.

Type       SDP Name     Registered Nettype   Reference
addrtype     IP4              IN             [RFC4566]
addrtype     IP6              IN             [RFC4566]
addrtype     E164             PSTN [RFC-ietf-mmusic-sdp-cs-21]
etc.
