Comment # 5 on bug 11403 from 
Not sure to fully understand what you mean (I'm not familiar with 802.3
specification myself) so sorry for the dumb questions below :)

THe MAC Control dissector was modified in
https://code.wireshark.org/review/gitweb?p=wireshark.git;a=commit;h=cd2abf956b6a00ab8d00157ecad1d8a84301f07c
and the opcode 0x0001 was renamed from "Pause" to "MPCP Pause". This is still
different from opcode 0x0101 which is named "Class Based Flow Control [CBFC]
Pause".

Do you simply disagree on the naming?

This change also added a systematic timestamp field after the opcode. From what
I can see in the 802.3 2012 table 31A-1, this field is not supposed to be
present with opcode 0x0001, 0x0101 or 0xFFFE. So there seems to be a bug here.
