Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Using wireshark protocol parsers to buildpackets
Thanks lot for your answer. Packet trace anonymization was exactly the point
I am interested in :)

No; that feature's missing from the current version because the
infrastructure for it isn't available, not because Wireshark chooses not
to implement it.
This is probably significantly more complicated than one might think,
especially given packet reassembly. A mechanism to do that would be
useful for manually editing packets (e.g., to construct a sequence of
packets to replay), as well as for the anonymization feature another
person would like to implement - but it'd require architectural work.
