Is there anyway that we could have the type of
functionality in this patch but in a more generic way,
as to allow for something like -z
"proto,colinfo,var,var" to be used?
Something with the kind of freedom that -z gives us
would be perfect, and would prevent me from hacking up
dissectors with the print statements for sql.

Just a thought.
