in case it helps this discussion, here is what was contemplated
as enhancement of the AtmAddr TC:

> AtmAddr ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION
>         DISPLAY-HINT "1x"
>         STATUS  current
>         DESCRIPTION
> "The ATM address used by the network entity.  
> The semantics are implied by the length. 
> The address types are: 
> - no address (0 octets)
> - E.164 (8 octets)
> - NSAP (20 octets) 
> In addition, when subaddresses are used the AtmAddr may 
> represent the concatenation of address and subaddress. The
> associated address types are:
> - E.164, E.164 (16 octets)
> - E.164, NSAP (28 octets)
> - NSAP, NSAP (40 octets)
> Address lengths other than defined in this definition
> imply address types defined elsewhere.
> Note: The E.164 address is encoded in BCD format."
>         SYNTAX   OCTET STRING (SIZE(0..40))
