Add info to report.xml to relate outfoing and incoming tcp flow

It has been asked before so I ask again. Currently it is guesswork to find the two flows of a bidirectional tcp stream. It would be nice if they could be related through some information in report.xml.

For instance give each flow an ID and have pairs relate to each other in additional XML sections. Or give each TCP connection a unique ID and add the ID of the connection to each flow.

Isn’t the tupple of source ip, source port, dest ip , dest port a sufficient identifier?
