I would say yes. And I would even strongly suggest that the
InetAddressType and the InetAddress columns sit next to each other in
the order (InetAddressType, InetAddress). This rule will ensure that
generic managers will be able to understand the relationship between
these objects (which we unfortunately can't represent formally in the
SMIv2).
