I think those tasks setup up themselves at IPL Time with the Security levels they need and may not do much with the SAF. I am unsure what an auditor it thinking.
There is nothing that can use those address spaces - only z/OS If services, for example in SMS, are requested, then SMS would use the USER's - doing the request - credentials. You might also want to ask on the RACF List to see what they say. They probably have more of an idea about auditors. To join, if you have not done so, you can use this URL RACF http://www.listserv.uga.edu/archives/racf-l.html However, if it makes the auditor happy and it causes no harm, why not?
