I would just tag a sentence to the end of the parag you suggested:
If the 3GPP network supports both IPv4 and IPv6 PDP contexts, the UE may
activate the appropriate PDP context depending on the type of
application it has started; it may also make sense to open both PDP
contexts in advance, before they are used, because the activation of
a context may take a relatively long time. If both PDP Contexts are
not opened in advance then it may be necessary for an application
to trigger the creation of a new PDP Context when it determines
that a communication to an IPv6 peer is required and an IPv6 PDP
Context is not available.
