Just as, when you're typing a filter field name to sufficiently recent versions
of Wireshark, a drop-down list of protocol names or field names matching what
you've typed appears, it would be nice if, after you've typed a field name and
a comparison operator, and the field has a list of values associated with it, a
drop-down list of values appeared, e.g. a list of DNS record types for
"dns.qry.type ==" or "dns.resp.type ==".

For extra credit, drop down a list of valid comparison operators after a field
name has been typed.

This might involve getting a "what types of token are expected by the parser"
indication on a parse error, so you can get enough information to know what to
drop down.

That might be doable in Lemon, but it's a bit of work:

(This might also make it possible to give more detailed errors for invalid
filters, etc..)
