Any chance of a more complete explanation of how dissectors should use the can_desegment pinfo field for README.developer perhaps? Handling for this field currently gets no mention in any of the README files.
I've read the description in packet_info.h but am still unsure of what my dissector should do.

 Set "pinfo->can_desegment" before calling dissectors; that's expected
 for dissectors that do TCP-style desegmentation.
