Antonio,
 
Can you give an experimental reference to this mysterious magnetic field around
this "displacement current"?  Can we measure it magnetically?  Could a small
flat plate capacitor placed in the center of a Pearson current transformer
measure this current?  It can sure measure the current in the leads up to the
capacitor.
