I initially collected my data by doing a grep on ",srt" and comparing the filenames it showed up on in \ui\cli and \ui\gtk.  The initial list showed a big disparity between what was supported in Wireshark and what was supported in TShark.  After digging a little deeper, I came to realize that the disparity isn't that great, it's just some of the TShark stats use ",rtd" (response time delay) as their stat tap name.

Is that "different" as in "they have no columns in common" or "different" as in "they have some columns in common but one or both of them have columns that the others don't"?

I.e., some Wireshark taps that have "{protocol},srt" as the name actually do RTD-style rather than SRT-style statistics?
