All tagged parameters are currently added as  
"wlan_mgt.tag.interpretion" and I did not want to add another visible  
entry to display the same value as "Tag interpretation" for SSID.  I  
think we should cleanup the ieee80211 dissector to add uniq abbrevs  
for all tagged parameters.


I will cleanup handling SSID as binary in WLAN Traffic Statistics, as  
the code you are pointing at is used for this.
