Yes, when conversation is set up from say the SDP dissector for the upcoming rtp flow we will not know on which wire 
it will appear. 

So perhaps the reassembly code should take into account the conversation ID (with conversations not taking the wire ID 
into account) *and* possibly also the wire ID, with a preference to indicate whether to include the wire ID or not (set 
the preference when there's routing between wires going on, don't set it if, say, wires are being bundled together for 
greater bandwidth, or different VLANs are being used for upstream and downstream traffic, or...).
