​Not all that difficult to do using standard 3270 orders: SBA to the screen
location; SF to start an unprotected field. Immediately SF to start a
protected field. I'm fairly certain this will allow TAB to go the the
0-length unprotected field which precedes the ​protected field. If not,
then change the SF to say unprotected+dark and make then next data byte a
simple blank.
