"Decode As" currently only works at the TCP layer, and IPP doesn't run over
TCP, it runs over HTTP.

This would require either

    1) extension of "Decode As" to other protocol layers

or

    2) using the Content-Type field to choose IPP (at the time we did the IPP
dissector, we didn't support subdissectors of HTTP content being selected by
Content-Type) - look for "application/ipp".

2) is probably the best answer here, as it'd make the right thing happen
automatically.

Title changed to reflect the underlying problem.
