I would prefer to have a separate API set (being it NTAR or anything else) to deal with capture files.
One of the things I like less about libpcap is that the API to read/write files is too much tied to the capture one without any specific reason.
That somewhat collides with WinPcap's pcap_open(), which can either open a capture device or a capture file.
