Wireshark is essential for anyone who works with networks.
Perhaps we can get rid of frivolous stuff like LibreOffice. ;-)
I see the full DVD as being used by people that have limitations to their networks that prevent using the NET install iso, or one of the Live DVD isos. They might be purchasing the DVD, or getting it from a friend that has better connectivity. It needs to have the applications needed to perform basic office operations, to browse the web, and send/receive E-mail. For me, that means LibreOffice, Firefox, and Thunderbird, but there may be alternatives that use less DVD space. For me, playing games on the computer is something I never do, and all of them can be removed as far as I am concerned. Yes, wireshark is essential for anyone solving network problems, but I do not think it is essential for it to be on the DVD. Having it in the repo is good enough. I have never found it necessary to get the initial network connection working - wireshark and kismet are much more important for relatively obscure wireless problems.
