A small amount of ownership info is kept in the control block that describes
the name/token entry - for example it contains the ASID and TCB. However, I
would *love* to see the following information added :
JOBNAME of creator
STOKEN of creator
STCK of creation
The usefullness of seeing the tokens is proportional to your knowledge of what
either/both the "name" and "token" refer to. I find that displaying the
name/tokens help during interactive debug sessions of my own code as I use them
to anchor each task and its associated end-of-task exit routine.

I have always been one to poke around in the system. You find out how stuff
works; every bit of knowledge is useful.
But in this case, I am not sure what I would learn by knowing the name/tokens.
How would I use the information? More interesting to me might be who created
what name/tokens (even then, the benefit of knowing it is hazy). Is ownership
kept in the control blocks?
