Thanks.  This should help to narrow down the cause of the problem.

I agree.  To me, that makes the most sense.  Anyway, assuming that's the
expected situation, then I think we actually have 2 bugs here - one in
trunk-1.6 with the packet list not being displayed for the newly created file,
and one in the trunk where the current file isn't closed and the newly created
file opened.
