The current behaviour is intentional.

As bringing up these statistics will decrease performance (only
slightly, but you'll notice it with very big capture files) for each
kind of conversation.

So the combined dialogs will be slower than only open a single one.

If this performance penalty wouldn't be the case, I'd completely removed
the whole "Conversation List" and "Endpoint List" entries already some
time ago.
