Sounds like something to add as feature-request on bugzilla?

If you can live with the fact that the following filter does not only
show you the wanted fields, but also a little noise, the following
filter might reduce the amount of frames you need to look at:

bootp.option.type == 53 && bootp.option.value == 01 && bootp.option.type == 55 
&& bootp.option.value == 01:03:3a:3b

Same type of filter here:

bootp.option.type == 53 && (bootp.option.value == 02 || bootp.option.value == 
05) && !bootp.option.type == 3

I agree :)
