Checked in, along with your earlier patches to the other files.

Yes - if it sees a segment that's out-of-order (detected by seeing that
its starting sequence number isn't the next sequence number it's
expecting), it should perhaps start a reassembly, so that when the data
just *before* the out-of-order segment is seen, it reassembles that
data.
If another segment arrives that contains the data with the next sequence
number, but that doesn't go all the way to the data just before the
out-of-order segment, it might be nice if it tried handing that directly
to the subdissector, so that it doesn't do reassembly when it's not
needed.
