I was thinking it would be nice if ethereal included a super-stripped-down
version of tethereal. Basically a "capture only" tool. All it should be able
to do is dump data to a file. No dissection, nothing special. I'd suggest
not including anything beyond the interface to the libpcap/bpf filtering.

This would be a great lightweight tool to use to just dump the network to a
file. 

I almost wonder if this would make more sense to be in the libpcap package
though.
