 The problem in this case I see with GUI. Imagine use case:
1) User starts live capture
2) User open a dialog where initiate operation which save file with
"finish" callback

If you can do a save while a capture is still in progress (a save, not an "export specified packets"), that sounds like 
a bug, unless it somehow manages to have the capture being done switch from writing to the temporary file to the 
resulting saved file (unless the "save" just means moving the file from the temporary directory to another directory 
and renaming it), and does *not* end up causing the "finish" callback to be called.
