I think it will not be such easy. 
The 1st PDU has to clear TCP information.
If some of next PDUs contains upper layer protocol this protocol has to
overwrite only it's PDU information.
If the dissector is called next time (to display tree after moving to
some packet) it should either clear and rebuild COL_INFO column contents
or leave it as is.

I will try to do it by saving some packet/frame information.
