Is this a JCLLIB member, or any other data member?

Does the Reader stall until you log off, or do you see an outdated
instance of the member?

I can envision this happening with a PDSE, given PDSE's LUW isolation
protocol; less likely with a traditional PDS.

Does the Reader/Converter hold JCLLIB open for extended times?

Is there a way to refresh the Reader's view of directories in the JCLLIB
concatenation?

It's my understanding that a task's view of PDSE directory entries is frozen
until that task closes the library.  I'm puzzled that synchronizing requires
ending the updating task rather than the reading task.

Etc.
