> Proton-dump discards the leading 8 bytes of data in all cases. I have two uses where this is a nuisance. They are generated by wireshark the same way:
>  * Start wireshark trace
>  * Find stream of interest
>  * Follow TCP stream
>  * Save As type raw
>  * Feed the raw file to proton-dump
> Case 1. The raw saved file has a complete AMQP connection startup. The binary data has two AMQP headers and proton-dump fails.
> Case 2. The raw saved file starts midstream in the AMQP content. The binary data has no AMQP headers and proton-dump fails.
> With the wireshark dissector one usually does not need proton-dump. But sometimes wireshark complains about a frame format or a decoding issue. Proton-dump as an AMQP decoder is a higher authority than wireshark and fixing proton-dump a little improves its utility.
