Sorry, but did you mean "didn't" here? I can't see an exact example
myself; I think there used to be one, but perhaps it has been moved.
Anyway, if you can get Lua working, the following snippet will set the
"user decode" for a udp port:
my dissector = Dissectors.get("<my_dissector_name>")
udp_table = DissectorTable.get("udp.port")
udp_table:add(<port_number>, my_dissector)
Replace <my_dissector_name> with the name of the dissector you want to
use, and <port_number> with the number of the port.
This only works for dissectors that have been registered by name.
Normally a dissector is registered under the lower case name of its
associated protocol, e.g. the HTTP dissector is "http".
I still think this would be a useful feature, so I'm glad you've posted
to the dev list as well.
