Well, since the protocol column typically displays the bottom-level 
protocol, it seems to me that it would make most sense to simply build a 
filter based on that.

Eg, if the protocol column currently displays SMB, and I right click over 
that and select Match-->Selected, then I probably want to see only SMB 
packets.
