    I know that some z/OS.e installations use our (E)JES/2 product
    for this purpose. It provides, among other things, a (virtually)
    unlimited number of GUI ISPF sessions, an environment considered
    more than adequate for most z/OS.e users.

I don't know about price, but for ISPGUI it's easy enough to RYO.
I did this once, launching ISPGUI from a batch job submitted via
FTP (it could as well have been submitted from a z/OS Unix shell).
I lost interest when the graphic interface of ISPGUI disappointed
me -- we don't suffer a TSO users limitation.
