With extcap, you may change an interface definition in the extcap plugin and
refresh the interface via GUI (Capture->Refresh Interfaces). In GTK this
reloads the interface list, in Qt it does not seem to do anything, especially
if the extcap interface is being used.

Is this a stub-function or am I missing something here?

The best way to test this is with extcap
