Subject:    [Ethereal-dev] Grabbing a selected region in the byte-view text

I was hoping to be able to grab a selected area from the byte view (not a 
highlighted area) and then call decode-as on that selected area.

However, there seems to be a number of problems with that. One is that if 
you click and drag in the byte-view area you will get a selected area that 
includes the byte offset in the frame, the hex-data portion and the 
printing portion.

Perhaps these three need to be three separate text boxes without borders 
or something.

A second problem is that handling selections seems to be extremely 
complicated.
