File formats that extcap programs can write

Hi
Can an extcap program write to a wiretap-supported file format other than
pcap or pcapng?  A quick test (hack to file preamble and frames in
extcap_example.py) suggests not..
Has it to do with synchronising whole frames being read at the wireshark
end of the pipe?

Regards,
Martin
