Not the ones that I've seen. The standard used to be that all IBM
utilities were written to run as subroutines and they typically
allowed additional parameters when called as subroutines, e.g., ddname
lists. If anything, there are more eyeballs on the behavior of the
authorized programs.
I see it as a management issue; TSO limits the user to the authorized
programs that the installation wants available to him. That has to do
with the purposes of the programs, not just how housebroken they are.
