This is not good: We use HFILL for a reason: To make it trivial to change the
(private) elements of the hf structure. If we need to do this, we should create
another MACRO (e.g. HFILL_INIT) in the same place where we define HFILL and use
that instead of explicitely setting all the values inside a dissector file.

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