For text based protocols like SIP, it will be very nice to have a display option in the "Packet Bytes" pane to show the packet data in plain text format instead of the hexdump.

Hi Nahuel,

The "Packet Bytes" pane already shows the packet data as ASCII text
near the hexdump.
Text based protocols' dissectors can (and sometimes do) provide an
option to show raw text like the SIP dissector.
To enable this feature please check Edit -> Preferences -> Protocols
-> SIP -> Display raw text for SIP message.

Cheers,
Balint
