I hardly disagree, that renaming "display filters" to "dissection 
filters" would be more intuitive,
unless you no what a dissector for Ethereal is, this term doesn't make 
any good sense for the novice user.

When I was new to ethereal, it took some time to be sure what an 
dissector was.
The term dissecting isn't used by other network analyzers, I was 
familiar with the term "decoding" for this before.

BTW: The term dissecting could be applied to both capturing and 
displaying, so IMHO this isn't a good name for this.
