Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 11204] The Aruba ERM Type 1 Dissector inconsistent with Ty

Comment # 14 on bug 11204 from
So from the ERM dissectors you are doing this:
ieee80211_handle = (find_dissector("wlan_withoutfcs") 
or this
ieee80211_handle = (find_dissector("wlan_withfcs")

Would it be possible to make the call in a way that references the value of the
“Assume packets have FCS” checkbox in the IEEE 802.11 dissector?  If you could
do that for Type 0, 1 and 3 that would allow the end-user to decide how they
want to deal with the missing FCS.

It would still be a nice enhancement if the 802.11 dissector made FCS
validation optional, just as we do for the CRC in TCP, UDP and IP.
