I have been working on an application that uses custom TCP Options.  Ones
outside the normal ones registered with IANA.
http://www.iana.org/assignments/tcp-parameters/

It would be nice if "TCP Options" were made a sub-category in the TCP Protocol
configuration screen under preferences.  This way I could setup a custom TCP
option like TCP Option #30, specify a size, and data type that it should
contain.  Such as IP address, string, 32-bit int, 64-bit int...  Then wireshark
could easily display those actual options rather than displaying "Unknown".

Thanks for listening.
