Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Store selected Wireshark prefs in pcapng capture file ?

[Bill Meier <wmeier@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Would it make any sense to be able to store "application specific" 
information in a pcapng file ?

E.g., selected Wireshark prefs so that Wireshark can act on same ?

This would be useful when a capture file reqires specific dissector
preferences to properly dissect the file.

Would this fit (at all) within the design goals for pcapng ?
Is there be a way to do this reasonably cleanly with the existing format ?

How might one indicate the prefs which should to be stored ?
