That's a good idea, but there's nothing in iftop to do that now.
I know it's possible on Linux to get that information from 'netstat
-ap', and presumably iftop could be modified to get the relevant
information from the same source that netstat gets it, but it would
take a bit of doing.
Especially because iftop is portable across several operating systems.
Presumably each of those operating system families would need their
own code written to get that information.
Still, a good idea. It would make a lovely patch to iftop.
