you could zap the FMT-1 dscb for this data set to turn the password bit
off of ourse if you want to

I'm not sure that is completely true, I remember there being an issue, but I
don't remember the details. Not all datasets were protected by RACF (there
were no GROUPs or profiles for most HLQs), so that might have had something to
do with it.
Do you have a reference for PASSWORD protection being ignored? I would be
interested in trying to recall what the problem was, I think it had something
to do with switching sysres, and the PASSWORD dataset not having an entry for a
protected dataset.

I make it a point NOT to have a PASSWORD dataset on my sysres. I consulted
at a shiop a few years ago that had one, and it was a PITA, since they were
securing some datasets with password, and others using RACF, believe it or not.
If they had RACF then nothing was being secured with PROTECT.
