btw, there is an easy way to accomplish this using tcpdump:
tcpdump -r old.pcap -w new.pcap -s0 <bpf filter matching the packets you want to send>
Then use tcpreplay on new.pcap

- Milestone changed from 3.0.RC1 to 3.0+
Since there is a workaround using tcpdump, postponing to after 3.0

Purely selecting packets to send/drop is not currently supported, but it should be.
