Hmm, I couldn't find one. There were some editcap-related bugs open, but I didn't see one specifically for this feature or even where this feature would resolve the bug by luck. Maybe I'm missing it too though.
I added this as a way to help simplify the steps I outlined in my answer to http://ask.wireshark.org/questions/24370/extracting-data-from-gtp-protocol (and forgot to mention that in the commit log), but also because I think it's generally useful. If it also resolves a bug though, then even better! But I don't think so.

IIRC there is (or was) a ticket open for this feature, if somebody remembers which one that would be nice, or I will try and learn bugzilla's search function again :)
