Took some digging to find the rationale here:
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=8461#c12

Besides what's written there, don't forget about the *_ext interfaces here.
Oh, and _all_ documentation / code samples, etc.

I get the idea, but we're wondering into parser territory here. It might be a
whole can-o-worms.

Just my E0.02,
