Wow, there are still a lot of problems.  The usability problems I've 
seen have mostly been fixed.  But if there are this many problems still, 
we better leave it in as an option.

I put countless hours into the new packet list before doing the first 
commit about 10 months ago, which built upon countless hours that Ulf 
had put into a prototype.  Since then, countless more hours have been 
put into it by many others.  I know our requirement for a packet list 
widget is on the complicated side, but it shouldn't be this hard.  Stop 
letting us down, GTK...
