Well, I don't know if I'd say it's "wanted".  Really what should happen is that
the GTP dissector should be made "new style" (that is, it should return 0 if it
finds the packet that was handed to it is not really GTP).  That may or may not
be easily possible, though.  It's easy if the protocol has a finite list of
known message types or something like that.  Even then, it essentially becomes
heuristic so it will never be perfect/100% correct (like disabling the GTP
dissector would be).
