I think the comment below is not relevant here, but I have also no
idea if this is still the case.

There is no IEEE802154_ADDR_LONG_BROADCAST (extended address) address.
The broadcast address is always a short address 0xffff. (Talkin about
destination addresses).
Just to clarify we can have here two different types/length of mac
addresses being used, whereas the extended address is always present.
We have the monitor interface set to an invalid extended address
0x0...0 (talking about source address) which is a reserved EUI64 (what
long/extended address is) address, 0xffff...ffff is also being
reserved. Monitors get their address from the socket interface.
If there is a parent, an extended address is always present and known.
A short address can be set, but is not required as a node to have.
Sure if a node has a short address, you want to use a short address
because it saves payload.
Also remember when an address is unique in the network, an extended
address (LONG) is always being unique, a short address is unique in
combination of pan id + short address.
If you save some neighbors you want to store the extended and if
present panid/shortaddress.
Or I do not understand something here?
btw: as you probably noticed, the netdev interface dev_addr is an
extended address (because it's always present). Now there comes the
ugly part, netdevs cannot deal with other dev_addrs with different
length, that's why it's stored in the wpan specific dev structure and
things don't get easy and solutions need to be found how to make it
working... get prepared to get crazy...
