Interesting.  In fact, I see:

    
http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/java/zos/javadoc/jzos/com/ibm/jzos/sample/ZipDatasets.html

... many wildcarding options; not merely HLQ.  And it will operate on DDNAMEs.
For that I'd suspect _BPX_SHAREAS=MUST is required.  "Datasets are treated as
text ..." might be a restriction in some cases.  No load modules?
