That is why I called the data dissector directly.  You didn't see any because I
need to call the data dissector explicitly.

UDT's NAK explicitly indicates in the packet what is missing (either a single
packet, or a list of ranges).  This is in the protocol itself not a part of the
dissector trying to detect the missing data.  That is why I don't think it is
an expert option.

Try this latest version.  It fixes the [Data] issue and should heuristically
detect the UDT stream based on the handshake packet.
