What do you guys think? Would it be relevant to implement a
Pcap-over-IP client in tcpdump?

It sounds as if you mean "pcap-over-IP server" here, in that tcpdump would send network traffic over the wire to a 
client, such as {tcpdump, Wireshark, NetworkMiner, etc.}.

In that case, tcpdump might be overkill; you don't need tcpdump's dissection capabilities, for example.-
