I also think it's a good idea. Judging from what has happened previously, you'll probably get no-one objecting until you commit the changes, at which time a group from core will erupt from the wood-work with a large collection of reasons for not doing it :-(. Whilst we're at it, how about extending `-x' to print out the packet in ASCII and hex (ala hd(1)). I know the code includes the statement * (BTW, please don't send us patches to print the packet out in ascii) but I find this feature very useful. (I'll send you patches if you are interested).
