Actually, I did - before I posted my question. And the answer was there is no requirement on the books for that. As others have indicated IBM-MAIN does not typically get requirements into releases. People need to submit a requirement through their branch office, or through SHARE. Then it gets analyzed, prioritized and worked on. I had suggested this a few years ago (it's actually an SMS/allocation issue) but because there were no requirements, it wasn't pursued. If someone would like to submit a requirement like this at SHARE I will try to apply some weight to get it implemented.
