Whether invoked via TSO, ISHELL, TELNET, a pid is a pid is a pid.
  
WLM is very flexible. You don't have to clasify all work in 
the OMVS subsystem in an "OMVS" service class. You can classify it 
into other appropriate service class(es) with similar work.

I have an "OMVS" service class set up with 2 periods similar to how you
might set up TSO (so you could even use the "TSO" service class as a
default if you wanted to and it was close enough to how you would 
set up the "OMVS" service class).  This gets all the interactive 
shell work ... and we have lots with WAS and SAP on System Z.  But
I have other classifications also. For example:

==============================================================
Classification:                                               
                                                              
  Default service class is OMVS                               
  Default report class is OMVS                                
                                                              
    Qualifier  Qualifier      Starting       Service  Report  
  # type       name           position       Class    Class   
  - ---------- -------------- ---------      -------- --------
  1 TN         CTGP*                         ONLPRDHI CTGP    
  1 TN         FTP*                          SYSSTC   NETWORK 
  1 TN         OMII*                         SYSSTC   MONITOR 
<remainder snipped>
==============================================================

My default service is OMVS. 
CTGP* is CICS Transaction Gateway... in the same service class
as other production CICS work. FTP* is for the FTP daemon,
OMII* is for Omegamon unix processes, etc. 

So given the different work qualifiers you can use, you should
be able to do what you need within the current WLM controlls.
