Thanks. That's not as nice but it will work. Not as nice because it means
having to refilter all the packets, which can take awhile with big capture
files. But no problem; I understand not wanting to go down the path of adding
every conceivable permutation of "Save As ..." options there are.

Yeah, I think the basic problem now is with the "Mark All Displayed Packets
(toggle)", as it doesn't really do what it implies it does. I think it would
be a good idea to make these changes so that the new "Invert Marked/Unmarked
(toggle)" replaces it and has the effect of marking all unmarked packets and
unmarking all marked packets. That is the definition of toggle to me.
