Provide ipv4 wrapper classes
Would you consider adding / accepting a patch of IPv4 implementations of
AddressRange etc. to this library? Much like how Java has InetAddress super
class and Inet4Address / Inet6Address.

Not a defect as such but I didn't spot the option for feature / improvement.

Actually a (closed source) predecessor of this project had support for both v4
and v6. However, they were sort of living next to each other and not sharing
much implementation/interface. I decided to start with v6 only for this
library, given that v4 is already better supported in existing libraries.
Having said that, yes.. I am willing to consider accepting patches to support
both v4 and v6 in the same library. We might have to change the name of the
project though ;-)
