OK, now I've tested it and it doesn't work so well on the current version, so I don't recommend starting a capture unless you are at character select,
unless, as Trevius suggests, you are comfortable with using Wireshark filters to just save the packets relating to the zone you are interested in.

As it stands now, starting a capture while you are already in a zone and then zoning will either cause the extractor to miss data when entering the new zone
(including crucial packets which make the collect unusable), or if a mob happens to spawn in the zone you are in, after you start the capture, but before you
zone, then that mob in the previous zone will be included in the data for the zone you are going to.
