The discussion from bug 13540 prompted this enhancement bug report. It would
be very nice to be able to add a new column in exactly the desired location via
a right-click on the column headings as Peter Wu proposed in bug 13540.
While the exact method of implementation is up for debate, here is Peter's
initial proposal, which appears sound to me:
[Begin]
What about this flow:
1. Select a field in the packet detail view.
2. Right-click on the column.
3. Select "Insert New Column: %1"
If the selected column is not "valid", then the option is not provided.
Otherwise, it will be shown and %1 is replaced by the label (e.g. "Stream
Index").
[End]
We might need to either have separate "Insert new column to the left" and
"Insert new column to the right" choices in order to allow columns to be added
in any position, including the last one on the right, or insertions could
always be made to the left of the selected column, but then there would be no
way to add a new column all the way to the right.
