Using the tshark '-o pref' switch doesn't work if the pref is created by a Lua
plugin.  I would think this is because the Lua plugin is loaded after tshark
checks the pref name's validity, but that's not the case.  I'm not quite sure
why it's not working, as I haven't investigated it further.  This bug is just a
reminder to myself to go figure it out and fix it.
