IMO we need something like a protocol-as-payload flag to set at
some point into the dissection: It should have several meanings:
a) From now on dissection may break at any time and it's not an error
b) Don't update the info column any more
c) not relevant to filters (or just color-filters?)
Does this make any sense? Would it be doable?

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
