Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Using /var/tmp instead of /tmp

What are the pros and cons of using /var/tmp instead of /tmp for Wireshark?

In Fedora, there is this downstream patch, which makes Wireshark use
/var/tmp:
http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/rpms/wireshark.git/tree/wireshark-0008-move-default-temporary-directory-to-var-tmp.patch
so I'm just wondering why is it Fedora specific.
