Would it be useful to have preferences for radiotap to allow handling of captures with conflicting presence flags?

I notice on this page

  http://www.radiotap.org/fields/suggested

it mentions that there are some conflicting usages of flag bits for radiotap.

Currently, Wireshark knows about bit 14 in the presence flags, but
hard-codes it for rx-Flags. It also doesn't know about tx-Flags (or
hardware-queue).

Would it be useful to allow the user to specify they want to be able
to switch between usages or are we trying to stamp out such
conflicting uses?
