Speaking of links to the Wiki, should we have some mechanism to, if a line in the packet detail is selected, take the short name for the protocol (as opposed to the filter name) and open the URL 

	http://wiki.ethereal.com/{protocol short name}

Perhaps a menu and context menu item?
Unfortunately, most of those links wouldn't refer to a page right now, and the people following such a link probably wouldn't be the ones who'd follow the instructions on the page to "Create this page" (if they were familiar enough with the protocol to create such a page, they probably wouldn't have needed to use the "show me information about this protocol" link), but it still might be useful with only a few pages.
