Hi Alexey,

Indeed you've made an enhancement to the IPMI dissector. But also to the 
type system, creating BASE_CUSTOM. All in all it's an invasive patch 
which has to be considered carefully before inclusion.
There's some more interesting stuff waiting in the patch queue, so they 
won't get lost; they will be addressed when someone can spend the 
necessary spare time on it.

Thanks for your patience,
Jaap
