INET/CIDR types

I noticed a discussion on this list about a re-do of the INET/CIDR
types.   I was wondering if there was ANY way at all to add
an output function that ALWAYS returns all 4 octets of an INET or CIDR
type with and without the /netmask?

I'm writing a IP Allocation/Tracking app for the ISP I work for, and
find the current output format causes confusion for the less
technical types.
