TCP Monitor default to XML view

Request that the TCP/IP monitor allow you to select a default view to like XML instead of the current "Byte". Even better, to choose the view based on the content type, but I'd settle for it just letting me set a global default.

I'm watching SOAP XML messages, and I have to switch every request & response from Byte to XML

    Although the theme of this request is consistent with our business strategy, it is not committed to the release that is currently under development.
