N.B we might be viewing a file captured somewhere else. So that would have to
be a new menu item - right?

Then we might want to add something to the capture we start.

But as a first step I'd like to preserve information in a stored file that
is filtered and saved as a new file.
The current limitation from the wiki page says theat wireshark only handles
one SHB and one IDB let's make that work first.
