I'm not sure that there is an issue here.
There was one MacPorts user I saw on macports-users that was trying to use the org.x.X11 NSDefaults domain rather than org.macosforge.xquartz.X11. Aside from that, I haven't seen anything bundle ID related.

Yeah, I've been having some issues with X-Chat recently. I think I have it straightened out now, but we'll see.

That sounds really bizarre. I don't understand why Wireshark would be doing that. I'm curious if it's a recent wireshark and how Wireshark is being launched.
Wireshark really shouldn't be needing to ask the user about XQuartz *unless* $DISPLAY was unset, and it was falling back on some Tiger-era code for handling launching X11.app and figuring out $DISPLAY by iterating over the user's processes. My guess is that this is the case. The user probably clicked-through the notification to logout when installing XQuartz for the first time (and thus did not have $DISPLAY set when Wireshark launched).
