Status INCOMPLETE CONFIRMED

Comment # 4 on bug 12402 from 
OK, the more precise version of

    The DIS dissector, prior to v2.0 updates ...

is

    The DIS dissector, prior to v1.12 updates ...

The change was made in the 1.12 release, not the 2.0 release (i.e., it was
*well* prior to the v2.0 updates, as in "one major release prior to the v2.0
updates).  The code was changed from code that did its own formatting and did
*not* make the time stamps filterable to code that used FT_RELATIVE_TIME fields
and let the Wireshark core do the formatting.

So the question is whether the right way to handle this is 1), 2), or 3).  (The
correct way involves doing the formatting in the Wireshark core; the question
is in what fashion to allow relative time fields to be formatted as something
other than seconds and fractions of a second.)
