Where do you need that info, in the frame section of the packet details we list the following:

Coloring Rule Name: ___tmp_color_filter___01

If a user wants to know which coloring rule is used for a selected
package, the "Coloring Rule Name" is the one to look at.
I think that "tmp_color_filter" don't tell the user which coloring
rule is used (the user may not know that "tmp" is used for
conversation or filter coloring rules), or which function that created
this rule.  That's why I want a more descriptive name here :)

As these color filters are only active during one Wireshark session, I would have assumed a user would know he created 
a colorfilter from a conversation or field and that the filterstring right under the filter name would be descriptive 
enough. But maybe that's just me...

If you really look for a new name, how about "___session_color_filter___XX"?

Cheers,


Sake
