People have probably thought about that, but I don't know anybody  
who's implemented anything such as that.

There is, as far as I know, no reason why that couldn't be done as  
either a built-in tap or a plugin (I suspect that if TShark were to  
try to load a GUI plugin, the attempt would fail, and TShark would  
just ignore it).
