Many users of TShark will want to parse the output in some way, which makes the
"-T fields" feature a necessity.
Unfortunately using the fields output precludes getting the summary "Info"
column that can save a lot of time when looking at the output manually.

Using the -o option to set a custom column format is not a way around this as
it results in a format that is difficult to parse (with variable spaces
inserted for formatting).
