Googling for 0x8884 I has found that it's already defined as
ETH_P_ATMFATE (full name: Frame-based ATM Transport over Ethernet)

and there's some specification at
http://www.broadband-forum.org/ftp/pub/approved-specs/af-fbatm-0139.001.pdf

Is this the same protocol?
If yes maybe dissector should be called FATE rather than ATMoE?
