When coming up to speed on a capture that someone else created, I typically
work down through the Statistics menu items.

The long protocol descriptions are nice but sometimes it would be nice to know
the abbrev that will be used in a filter before using them in "Apply as Filter"
or "Prepare a Filter".

The attached screenshots show examples of the protocol abbrev displayed in the
footer for the current selected protocol or as a new column showing them all.

Thoughts?
