Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Does proto_deregister_field really work?

Hi folks,

I have an application where I want to change the specification of an
HF entry or two, and found proto_deregister_field.

It would seem that I can deregister a field and then register a new
version of it ... as long as I am careful.

What is the cost of doing this?

Is an alternative to register a fixed array but modify the entries?
