I searched and couldn't find anything on multiple expert infos.
 
What severity level is supposed to be shown in the 'expert' column
when there is more than one expert info in a packet?
 
This
 
An optional "Expert Info Severity" packet list column is available (since SVN 22387 → 0.99.7), that displays the most significant severity of a packet, or stays empty if everything seems ok.
 
at the bottom of section 7.3.4 "Expert" Packet List Column (optional)   http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChAdvExpert.html
seems to imply an ERROR would be shown instead of WARN.
 
For example in one packet I have:
 
there was a UDP ERROR severity expert info for a bogus payload length
 
there was also a WARN severity expert info for a protocol dissected in
the UDP payload.
 
The 'expert' column displayed WARN.
 
It seems like a bug.
