yes of course this can be done. I just don't know if this is really 
necessary. The Wireshark user will likely know if he is looking for 
SSL/TLS (on TCP connections) or DTLS (on UDP). If may be sufficient to 
use "tls.*" for both use cases. If we decide to unify filter names we 
shouldn't use the current "ssl.*" or "dtls.*".

If the user doesn't know if he wants to examine SSL/TLS or DTLS (maybe 
studying something generic about these kinds of encryption protocols) 
the user would like to have a filter prefix that will match both use cases.
