It appears that the German lsoft provider is delaying emails (again), so I did not see Jims last reply until I had already replied (hence my wrong assumption for the issuing module for iee178i).

I don't remember ever going down into the DCCF trenches, so I have (maybe falsely) assumed that the reissue would be done after the spin loop is resolved. By 'timely' I mean preferably while the spin loop occurs (thinking of the cases where a bug in RSM/XES/SRM/dispatcher actually causes the spin to move from one processor to another until they're all tied up - and no operator there to see the messages), but right after is fine with us, too. So maybe my previous argument about a trade-off of not making iee178i a held message is not valid, after all. Would this be a feasible future enhancement?
