 tcp.data already exists for exposing a single TCP segment's payload as a byte

 layer PDU when TCP segment reassembly is involved. I propose
 tcp.reassembled.data, named and placed after the already existing field
 tcp.reassembled.length.

What is the functional difference between tcp.segments and tcp.reassembled.data?

They both provide the reassembled data, and I think this looks like a
duplicate field.
Or do I miss something here?

The reason I ask is because I was thinking about this when
implementing reassembled.length, but found the existing field
(hf_fragments) sufficient for all practical use.  And yes, I know this
question is a bit late :)
