Currently wireshark supports reading gzipped pcap files.  It would be nice to
have the option of reading pcap files compressed with (generally) better
compression algorithms like bzip2 and lzma.

For lzma, I'd suggest using the library for xz to support xz format:
http://tukaani.org/xz/.

7zip would be nice to support, but its perhaps of a different quality, being an
archive format (using an lzma variant by default).
