Enhancement Request

This is an enhancement request, apologies if is this is not the correct way to submit one. We have a problem where sometimes self.network_adaptors[0].ip_addesses[0] contains an IPv6 address, and what we're really wanting is an IPv4 address. If there were a wait_for_ipv4 and a separate wait_for_ipv6, then maybe in addition to ip_addresses if we had an ipv4_addresses and an ipv6_addresses this would solve the issue.
