Title: Ethereal support for specific type of packet

 Hi,

 We use specific type of packet that modify in the same way all the packets that we transmit.

 We insert 88BF as ethernet type and shift right the continues of packet 4 byte ahead.

 So, to return the packet to regular form we should erase those 4 bytes and shift left the continues of packet.

 Our modified packet displayed in ethereal incompletely, the type is "Unknown(0x88bf)" and due to the shifting

 the other packet information not displayed.

 How can I add support for that packet.
