Rather then have a prefererence within the ASTERIX disector to allow for
additional headers, would it not be better to implement the headers as a
seperate dissector and then call the ASTERIX disector once it reaches the
ASTERIX data. 

With regard to the multiple versions of the same category, could we not
implement a drop down list in the preferences panel which would allow a user to
select which version of the category they are using. I noticed the ANSI_BSMAP
offer a different version option.
