Is there any way to display TN3270E data as EBCDIC, other than with Analyze
-> Follow TCP Stream -> EBCDIC?

Currently, no.

That might require a preference setting in the Telnet dissector - I think the TN3270-ness of a Telnet connection is established by option negotiation early in the session, but the capture might not include that. (What it *really* requires is a per-connection setting, but we don't have the infrastructure to support that.)

That setting could also enable dissection of 3270 data streams (which is what I assume get sent over the connection).
