But I do think that you will agree that color filters to at least indicate errors is something that most would find usefull. The hard part is going through each protocol dissector to determine these values. I still believe that we have everyone submit the ones they are aware of. Perhaps a living error filter list that can be updated over time.


That might be true for very basic protocols like TCP, but everything else isn't a thing I would like to have by default.

E.g. I'm personally not interested in all the Novell protocols, and I would end up removing all of that error filters for that protocol.

That's maybe more of an issue for an example thing, where users could choose their favorites from.
