Hi,
It seems like marketing or SHARE requirements to IBM for DFSMSdfp to
support member level protection in just PDSE data sets might be in
order. PDSE code is newer and probably less costly and lower risk for
IBM to insert new function into. PDSE internal structure is not known
or used by customers and vendors so lower level access should be less of
an issue. PDSE access is only through known interfaces. PDSE is
actively being enhanced. If we want to get this funded as a line item
for a z/OS release then we need to start asking. If IBM satisfied
existing requirements only for DSORG PDSE it seems like that would be a
reasonable response.

O PDS/E data sets are not under member-level controls.
