Yes, the packet-ber.c is the right future :-).
But it does not support all possibilities now.
I have prepared many changes for packet-ber.c but I do not want to send them into the CVS 
every day. I guess I could send patch into CVS at the end of the next week.
If you would like to start writing dissctor now let me know and I can send you current 
version.
