The tcp.payload field was recently added, have a look at
https://code.wireshark.org/review/22374

I do agree that this is displayed wrong and should be fixed.
Increasing the length of the TCP header would be wrong because the
payload is dissected by upper protocols and does belong with the TCP
header.  Putting it at top level would also be wrong because it's not
a protocol.
