 I wanted to release a program called "netdump" which would use
libnetdissect, and start anew option-wise. We have lots of overlapping
and confusing option letters on tcpdump.
 It would be tcpdump with a different main().

I'd almost vote for pktdump, since tcpdump's doing alot more than just classical 'network' packets these days (eg: Bluetooth, USB).

Back on topic, I'd be happy to see the default snaplen changed to 65535.
