In my opinion the numerous checks for check_col() in the dissectors.are

All col_set_xxxx() functions in column-utils.c correctly check for the
precondition.
And the precondition is better placed in column-utils.c. Once done,
removing the export would be the logical consequence.
Yes, that's the direction now. But no one has bothered to go through
all the old code and remove the checks.
As I don't have direct SVN access and since I'm not core member, I'm not
sure whether I should start this change.
Would a single .diff file do? Any objection or motivation do do so?
I would guess one-big-diff would be a bit unwieldy (especially if the
tree changed between when you generated it and when someone applied it).
No reason not to go forward with it if you've got the time...
