Well I'm not doing any 802.11 traces so I don't realy have a preference either.
I just thougt that if you where filtering for a specific vendors subtype it
would be easier with a vendor specific subtype filter + the code could do with
a cleanup :-)
 Alternatives
A) Use the first patch
B) Add a vendor specific subtype filter for the known wendors AND a
   "Unknown vendors" subtype.
C)?
