Hello Wireshark Developer,

I want to set host names manually, without enabling the automatic IP address
resolution. 

Currently I'm analysing a foreign trace file with IP addresses that exist in my
local network too. I got tons of wrong host names with enabled name resolution.
Thereby I want to translate some IP addresses manually to names.

Steps to reproduce:
 1. Check that "Resolve network (IP) address" is unchecked in "Name Resolution"
preferences
 2. load a .pcap file
 3. right-click on an unresolved IP address
 4. select "Edit Resolved Name"
 5. enter host name
 6. click "OK"
nothing happens but I expect, that the inputted name is used instead of the IP
address.

Regards,
Carsten
