Re Comment #1:

I'm no expert on file capture formats, but I do suspect its likely that the
original pcap format doesn't support comments or other extensions.  However, if
you wanted to do a feature as I suggest, you *could* simply store the marked
points in a separate file to the actual capture data, as they would technically
not be part of the captured data anyway (as in they didn't come in over the
wire)... not that I would recommend or request such a design, I'm just
suggesting it would be a possibility...
