I'm completely sorry, as I confused the discussion. I just didn't get 
the difference between "Follow TCP stream" and "Filter out this stream" :-(

Now I understand the problem you described and can have a look at the 
bug itself :-)

I guess that Guy was correct when he guessed that's some limitation of 
the GTK labels/titles

Interestingly, this problem don't show up in the GTK1 version!

My approach tends to a proposal from Guy, at all GTK outputs limit the 
string length to some reasonable value and append a "..." to it when 
it's too long.

I will look what I can do and will send a bugfix later.
