tshark '-z io,stat':

1.) The resolution of the time values displayed by tshark's "-z io,stat, ..."
should be increased from milliseconds to microseconds (from 3 to 6 decimal
places) in order to be consistent with -z relative time-related options such as
"-z smb,rtt" and "-z rpc,rtt" which display values to 5 decimal places. 
[Please note that separate enhancement requests for 6 decimal of precision in
Wireshark will be submitted shortly.)  

2.) The "frames  bytes" column displayed in '-z io,stat' is too narrow, frames
    and bytes should each have 15 spaces like all the other column types. 

3.) The types "FRAMES" and "BYTES" should be added to allow users to display
    these values separately and allow for filters to be specified.  

4.) The 'SUM' option should allow for relative time values such as SRTs to be
    summed.  This would be useful for the calculation of such things as
    request concurrency (total_SRT_time / duration).

5.) The tshark man page needs some corrections and readability improvements.
