Also, apparently the tap's reset function didnt get called any more with the 
change from redissect_packets to retap_packets !? What's the difference
between the two functions?
retap_packets() doesn't reconstruct the packet list, that being something that doesn't need to be done if all you're doing is re-running the taps on the packets. Not reconstructing the packet list should make it run faster, and should keep the screen from flickering when the packet list is redisplayed.
I've checked in a fix to make it call "reset_tap_listeners()" before rerunning the taps.
