--
If I put the -T fields argument before the -e arguments, TShark complains
tshark: "-Tfields" was specified, but no fields were specified with "-e".
If I put it *after* the -e arguments, it works.
That violates the Principle of Least Surprise.
It should really defer the checking until after *all* the arguments have been
seen.
