...at which point libcliui presumably won't be necessary, as you could just 
directly build TShark from source in ui/cli and various shared and static 
libraries elsewhere in the source tree.

That would probably work best if all the other source files in the top-level 
directory that are used by TShark and by other programs such as Wireshark were 
put into other libraries, e.g. the stuff for running dumpcap to do captures 
probably belongs in a library.

Once that's done, we could also get rid of libgtkui, and just directly build 
the GTK+ Wireshark from source in ui/gtk; if we did the same with the Qt 
version, that would help with using automake/autoconf for the Qt version - I 
have it working with a "--with-qt" configure script option, but it required a 
bit of a greasy hack to get at least one .cpp file into the list of Wireshark 
source files, so that automake knows it needs to be linked as a C++ program.
