--- Comment #6 from Bill Vallance <tec...@wgvallance.com> ---
I'm using v3.0.3-g6130b92b0ec6.  The Edit Resolved Name allows me to add/change
the name associated with the src IP.  If I DON'T save the open capture file
after using the Edit Resolved Name feature, then reopen it, the Edit Resolved
Name still appears in the unsaved capture file.  Only when I close Wireshark
does and re-load unsaved capture file does the Edit Resolved Name NOT display.

It appears that Edit Resolved Names remain in memory and continue to change the
display of IP addresses that have been associated with them.  THIS LEADS TO THE
IMPRESSION THAT Edit Resolved Names ARE SAVED WITH THE CAPTURE FILE WHEN IN
FACT THEY AREN'T.

I suggest that every Edit Resolved Name be deleted from memory when its
associated capture file is closed - whether or not the capture file was saved. 
This put the onus on the user to consciously decide whether to save Edit
Resolved Names to the capture file or not.
