I don't think that snoop is the only quick and dirty method of
inspecting pacets, so that in itself is not an argument for keeping it.
Both tshark and tcpdump also do this (and better).  IMO a more
compelling reason to keep it is the large set of entities out there that
depend on its input and output formats.
