Whoo-hoo!  Go Gerald!  Thanks for finishing the work on that.  :-)

(Not that I looked at the patch or tried it out yet.)

My only concern is:

If this is the default then the release notes for the next release 
better have a *really big* notice about that fact.  (Imagine admins who 
install Wireshark for their own use but have absolutely no intention of 
letting mere mortals sniff the traffic.  We don't want them to be 
surprised...)
