I looked at that years ago. The issue I kept coming up with was to remember to re process the panels after maintenance. It might be semi acceptable on a small shop but when you have various people applying maintenance is could cause headaches. To me it just wasn't worth the exposure. I certainly can understand the look at. I would suggest as a painless easyway for essentially buyback with little or no effort is to put the applicable ISPF libraries into LPALIB or lpalist (probably the second is easiest). We did that from DAY 1 and we never went back. We had a "hotshot" performance guy in and he suggested it and was surprised that we had already done it.
