Yes, it does.  Perhaps older versions just said "Ethernet II", without
giving the source and destination MAC addresses, but the current version
shows, as the top-level protocol tree item for Ethernet packets, a line
that inclues the source and destination addresses, at least for Ethernet
II.

It also shows, in the top-level protocol item for IP, the source and
destination IP addresses, if you turn on the "Show IP summary in protocol
tree" option.
