Currently there's a big gap between adding a new IP through the IP Space namespace (http://[netbox-url]/ipam/ip-addresses/add/):
add-new-ip

and the Device namespace (http://[netbox-url]/dcim/devices/[device-id]/ip-addresses/assign/). If you assign a new IP to a device it looks like this:
assign-new-ip

The latter one forces the user to edit the IP after assigning it to a device e.g. to add a tenant or add NAT options. It would be great it both sites would provide the same feature. 😃
