I did, at least one part of it...

I changed do_thing to be a tap listener, it imports the fields and it
does its job.
I did delete file.c and packet.c and restored them from svn.

part 1 is solved...

part 2 is:
just calling thing_tree() from the tap against edt->tree did not realy work. 

Now the issue bocomes: how do I get the thing's tree into the tree?

Unfortunatelly I have thought no viable way but to call it from
somewhere where it will gets actually called every time the tree has
to be displayed. That is either packet.c or packet-frame.c, am I
wrong?

even in the case I'm not wrong and we need to meke it somehow
intrusive, there's a huge progress, now the "intrusion" needed is no
more than five lines of code in one of those files.
