+1

Enough places in Wireshark use it, and there will probably be, over time, 1) 
more encryption in protocols and 2) more calls for Wireshark to do decryption 
whenever possible, so I consider it worthy of deeming an essential support 
library for packet analysis.

If you want a small tool to run on devices, put a *capture* tool there and do 
the *analysis* on something big enough to do the job.
