OK, we have epan/dissector_filter.{c,h}, which have "Routines for dissector generated display filters", and epan/color_dissector_filter.{c,h}, which have "Routines for dissector generated display filters".
The first of those add to a list named "dissector_filter_list", which is only used by the GTK+ code.
The second of those add to a list named "color_conv_filter_list", which is used both by the GTK+ code and the Qt code.
What are the purposes of those two different types of filter?
Is there a good reason why filters of the first type aren't shown in the Qt UI and filters of the second type are?
