Hi list,

I'd like to implement packet deletion. for many things deeting packets
is *very* similar to marking and unmarking packets. I however have
some questions, so I list some statements below:

1. If I delete a marked packet, I should unmark it too.
2. All (context) menu items on a deleted packet must be disabled,
except for undeletion.
3. If a deleted packet is selected, its dissection tree must not be
shown.
4. Deleting packets in a capture may change the way a capture is
dissected. For example, if I delete a WSP redirect packet, then the
redirection conversation will not be built if the packets are
processed again.
5. Because of 4. we may want to have a "redissect" button be active
whenever we suspect something will change dissection.
6. Deleted packets "never" match a display filter.

Comments are welcome!

Regards,

Olivier
