Comment # 21 on bug 9512 from
3/4 of the callers that use from_hex are parsing data from the keylog file
which has a fixed format. The last one is used for parsing PSKs, this is a
string preference. A single PSK is not really flexible, so I would not even
bother with modifying it to support different formats for a single PSK. (need
uat here? open a new bug if needed)

As for other dissectors, those do not need to support strings with a separator
and therefore the use of hex_str_to_bytes is useless for them. (It is used for
dissection, not some preference.)

Close this as resolved?
