Vito,

I'm brand new to bro so I apologize if this isn't a good suggestion...

But as I was reading the documentation, I came across this which might help
you with what you need:
https://www.bro.org/development/logging.html#extending

It doesn't redefine an existing field but it allows you to, at least,
append to it!

As for removing an existing field, just looking at the example on how to EXTEND
logging <https://www.bro.org/development/logging.html#extending> (which
basically adds an element to the Conn::Info array), couldn't we do
something like this?
*delete Conn::Info['field']*

Best,
Luis
