There is a way (I think) to present the original and unxor'd bytes in 'sibling'
tvbs so that the user can see whichever they wish and how the dissection
relates to both. I think that would do what you need with respect to display
and decoding, and would also do what I want with respect to using wireshark's
existing functionality. However, I'm not familiar with that part of the API and
it would be a fairly substantial change.

I will review (and probably commit) the current patch as-is. I'll be happy to
accept a follow-up patch that does nice things with the tvbs, but I understand
at this point you probably don't have a whole lot of desire for the extra work
:)

Cheers,
Evan
