Joe, I don’t know if we can make the case for a stand alone processor for doing 
this on top of that, if so, I’d be willing to take a look at that.

In the Apache Metron Project (in the attic now) we used 
https://github.com/nishihatapalmer/byteseek to do pcap searches, maybe you can 
check that out.

I dunno about a good implementation…  

I did a similar extension of GetTCP to allow for a regex EOM rather than a  
single byte. It works, but I don’t feel like it was done in the spirit of  
the existing processor!
