On the contrary I'm using it for something that isn't really what it was
designed for precisely *because* of the index methods. What index access
methods are you looking for that are lacking?

db=> explain select * from foo where foo_code << '4.0.0.0/8';
                                        QUERY PLAN                              
          
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Index Scan using foo_foo_code on foo  (cost=0.00..34.56 rows=1695 width=229)
   Index Cond: ((foo_code > '4.0.0.0/8'::cidr) AND (foo_code <= 
'4.255.255.255'::cidr))
   Filter: (foo_code << '4.0.0.0/8'::cidr)
(3 rows)
