...and we currently treat all frames in ATM captures as being
LLC-encapsulated frames, but there might be information in the file to
indicate the type of the frame (other than, say, the VPI/VCI and the
first few bytes of the frame).

So some ATM captures, especially if they have LANE, signalling, or ILMI
traffic - or raw cells - would be useful as well.
