(The packet list in 1.2.x and prior is now called the "old packet list" while
the one in 1.4.x and later is the "new packet list")

We implement a custom tree model for additional flexibility in the new packet
list, which I originally based on this tutorial:
http://scentric.net/tutorial/treeview-tutorial.html

It continues to use the standard Gtk sorting functions (qsort apparently), but
with custom comparison functions.  

It looks like we can implement our own sorting algorithm as well:
http://scentric.net/tutorial/sec-custom-model-sorting.html which may allow us
to provide a stable sort.
