I'm not sure my use case mirrors the OP's but I don't favor a preference for
this at all. I just see it as a third additional hierarchical level above
field. Something like (skipping the ASCII art):
Protocol (12 frame sub-bytes in grey) -> Field (4 frame sub-sub-bytes inside
protocol in blue) -> Byte (1 frame sub-sub-sub-byte inside field in yellow)
I don't think it requires special handling...? It could work by single-clicking
a single byte ("select"/highlight mode) or double-clicking a single byte
("mark"/highlight mode, possibly making the highlighting sticky and breaking
the hierarchical model - then it's just a marker).
