Comment # 4 on bug 8792 from 
Ok, it's an enhancement request since the feature was never implemented.

But please note that in its current state, wireshark's "bittorrent" display
filter doesn't work with the majority of BitTorrent traffic, as uTP is the
default transport layer in most BT clients.

IMHO, uTP should be parsed as a transport layer protocol, similarly to TCP and
UDP, allowing one to "follow uTP stream". Once utp becomes a stream transport
layer protocol, the payload can be fed into the existing BT dissector.
