The hfinfo->strings contains a protocol_t when handling a FT_PROTOCOL, but hfinfo->parent can be -1 in other cases. I suppose all elements created with proto_tree_add_text, which uses the static hf entry in proto.c, will crash wireshark when selected in the Protocol Details.

Yes.

What I think we want is the selected protocol tree item; if it's an FT_PROTOCOL, disable that protocol, otherwise walk up the protocol tree until we find an FT_PROTOCOL, and disable that.
