I just tested in my 1.2 system and it does not work the way your tester said. I was able to restart only specifying STEPNAME.PROCSTEPNAME even if the proc in question has only one step. The closer thing I remember about proc stepnames is that if you want to pass OVERRIDE DD statements to the first step of the proc you don't need to qualify with the procstepname, but it has nothing to do with restart.
