Tomorrow I'll have to:
[Ctrl-Shift-P][p][r][o][RET][fw-arrow][s][s][RET][fw-arrow][t][c][TAB]
for a keyboard animal like me that's a loss...
On the other hand I know that TCAP is an SS7 protocol so *I* would
look there, for someone that does not know what SS7 is how he would
ever know where to look.
And you'd see TCAP next to SCCP next to MTP3 so if you want to change
multiple preferences at once you wouldn't have to go scrolling...
SS7 is not a good example for this... if you do not know what's SS7
you probably won't see any SS7 traffic not even by accident, lest
you'll now or need to know what's TCAP. But my point is that
categorizing protocols can hide many of these from users.
The flat list is easy to search while for the categorized one you need
to know where the protocol belongs.
What about having an option to "flatten the tree" to search all the
protocols, sorted alphabetically, like today?
Or even a "filter" box to search the list?
