Thanks Sake!  The new mark/unmark behavior makes a lot more sense now and I
think it provides all the flexibility needed.

I hadn't really played around too much with the "ignore packet" feature before,
so I didn't realize those packets would not show up at all if a display filter
was applied.  So, because they don't show up as <Ignored> like they do when
there's no display filter applied, I agree with you in that there's no point
changing the existing behavior for ignored packets.  If that ever changes
(i.e., ignored packets that also match a display filter show up as <Ignored>,
then I think it would make sense to change it similarly.  Until then, closing
the bug as fixed.  Thanks again.
