Looks good, thanks! :-)

About the dref: as far as I know the dref page is built from the latest
"stable" version of Wireshark--now 1.2.7.  Since jmirror is only present in the
development version (1.3.x), it doesn't show up in the dref stuff yet.

(And no, you can't edit that, I think it gets generated when a new release is
built.)

That's probably just something to live with until the development version turns
into another stable branch (i.e., 1.4.0).

Looking at the heuristics from the patch, it may be better to leave this as
registering for specific ports only because the heuristics weren't very strong:
a lot of packets could falsely show up as jmirror (at least I'm guessing). 
Maybe that could be improved, but it could be the subject of another bug if
anyone wants it.  Closing this one now.
