I like the idea of prompting the user for a UDP port number.  Are there any
existing dissectors that I can have a look (okay, steal from) that use this
approach.  It would definitely be more straight forward that having to use the
"Decode as.." approach.

Unfortunately the range idea won't work since the UDP port used in the packet
mirror is completely arbitrary.

But how would the dissector get called in the first place if there are no UDP
ports tied to it?  All of the examples I saw used the UDP port number as the
linkage for automatically calling the customer dissector.
