Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Packet Storage

Hi

I want to run dissector on certain packets in the stream of packets. Is it possible to store the pointers to packet data and call dissector later for those packets only?
or the only possibility is to store myself those packets or dissected information as they arrive?
(Wireshark apparently seems to store raw packet data  because dissector is called whenever one clicks on the tree in UI...am I right?)

thanks

an
