Most of meta-networking tends toward the console end of things,
understandably, so just about any scheme would work for >90% of the
packages there.  But wireshark is one of the tools I've used reasonably
regularly and I'm aware has a GUI but that I'd be hard pressed to
identify a screenshot for.  :-)

Good point.  It still looks like it's mainly informational (eg. filling
out the appropriate fields for rpms/debs/etc.) but I'll take another
look around to ensure I'm not causing any unintended side-effects.
