But of course. Nothing wrong with this. What use would the address type be 
of if you don't know who's address it is?
Today, my children and I have the same address = address type is 
id('home') for all of us. A few years down the track, the same address 
might be id('holidays') for me or id('parents') for my kids or id('work') 
for my employees.

An address in itself has no "type". The "type" is only relevant in context 
to a specific identity. No id_identity - no need for address_type.
