This feature is much like 'search in results' which can be found in search
tools. One difference is we can save several 'search results' cheaply.

And it will save user's time significantly, especially when the number of
packets is very large.

I have a patch to implement this feature. Here is an example to use it:

1. load a capture file
2. filter out all UDP packets
3. click 'Snapshot...' button on toolbar, and a dialog box appears.
4. select one item in TreeView, and click save button in dialog box, then close
it.
5. type 'dns' in 'filter entry', and click 'Snapshot...' again, the dialog box
appears again.
6. select the 'UDP' item in TreeView and click 'apply'.
7. now, only 'UDP' packets are 'searched', and displayed.
