Several of the fields could perhaps at least use a tag to indicate what 
they do, e.g. to indicate that the radio buttons "Display 
Filter/Hex/String" let you search using a display filter, a hex string, 
or a text string, and that the radio buttons "Hex/Decode/Summary" 
search the hex window (what exactly does that search do?), the text in 
the decoded packet window, and the text in the summary window.
