  So is "the current time" the time the packet was sent?  If so, the best
  that Ethereal can do is use the time the packet was *received* as the
  time base.

I was going to look to see if the rx header contains a timestamp.  If so,
that would be the best base to use.  Otherwise, the time the packet was
received would be fine.  It's not critical.

  An alternative would be to report it as a relative time rather than
  convert it to an absolute time.

This could be the best solution of all.  Those of you who use afs, which
would you rather see?
