Introducing a new DASD architecture should be a doddle. New playing

If they can slip media manager code in "under the covers", why can't
they also add new functionality just for FBA.
Be nice if it is freely (and widely) documented though.

There were FBA Drives under DOS/VS. They were transparent to the user/programs. If it could be done then, why not now?
