If you open up the Capture -> Options window, and then change the setting of
the "Monitor Mode" column for an interface, the setting for that interface in
the "Link-layer Header" column, and the set of available link-layer header
types in that column, do not change to reflect the change to monitor mode.
This makes it a pain to capture after changing the mode - the previous
link-layer header type is probably not available with the new setting of
monitor mode, so you have to change that yourself.
