Agreed.  I'd suggest that an instruction tag (like the :ASM and :MAC tags
that HLASM already supports) might be a good syntax to allow this.  For
example:

        MVC   DEST,SRCE         USE DEST LENGTH
        MVC:2 DEST,SRCE         USE SRCE LENGTH

And MVC DEST,SRCS()

However, as I said before, better to use a defined constant
having a clear unequivocal length a la CLx.

To avoid errors, probably even better to use a macro that checks that
DEST is not shorter than SRCE.
