I like the idea, but I do not think that the SCTP related items should
be moved there. It is correct that SCTP was originally developed in
for the telephony environment, but it is a general transport protocol
nowadays.

I don't see any reason why a given statistic must be in only one menu; for example, I could imagine a "Web" menu with HTTP statistics and WAP statistics, with WAP statistics also in the "Telephony" menu, and I could also see a "Transport" menu with SCTP (and TCP and...) and possibly also have it (and TCP?) in a "Telephony" menu.
