Mmmh... This leads to another candidate item on the wish list:
"replay" a capture by displaying the packets in the GUI at the
same pace the packets were captured. One could also add a time
rubber widget allowing to replay the time in slow/fast motion.

How about using:
O (red circle) for "Start capture",
[] (black square) for "Stop capture" and "Stop capture replay",

implemented) and "Pause capture replay"
