Never have, never will - as little extra effort as that may seem. I even more strongly suggest that sysprogs read and "soak in" HOLDDATA when they apply maintenance. ESPECIALLY ++ACTION holds. If you routinely ignore them, you will eventually run into a bigger problem than IPLTEXT that may be missing a PTF.
