If I would heed advice, I wouldn't still be hitchhiking, as a 60-year old, even
now, in the midst of a pandemic. So, again I will ignore this suggestion. ;)
It's my understanding that Doug's ISFPCU41 panel and REXX panel exit was for
highlighting syslog. Most of that stuff is in native SDSF now so you don't need
customization.
No, it wasn't just the syslog (Doug's panel) or isn't (SDSF), just logged on to
a 2.4 system for a few seconds, and yes, SDSF uses a few more colours, but
Doug's panel/exit went a lot further, highlighting JCL and allowing user defined
customization, like:

FWIW, I have two versions of Doug's panel, one from 2006-05-17 and one from
2007-07-19, with minimal changes, and my own version that adds the above PL/I
error-message highlighting, colours &SYSUID, sets the screen name in the SWAPBAR
and red-lights excessive CPU or elapsed time. I'm not sure on which of those two
DN versions it's based.

Can I strongly advise that you do not modify the ISFPCU41 panel.
I hope you don't mind me ignoring that advice. ;)
But don't worry, the changed panel is in my own panel library, which is
allocated in front of the IBM supplied ones, with the original one.
There could be changes to the SDSF ISPF interface that would make any
modifications you make to this panel very difficult (or impossible) to
implement into the next release of SDSF.
In which case we might have to start from the original new panel again. I
already mentioned that Doug's version is old, at least a decade, and that the
addition of a lot more attribute characters on the current panel makes his
copy look very weird on z/OS 2.4.
If there is functionality that you require in SDSF, please consider raising
an RFE.
And how long would I have to hold my breath?
Anyway, it's not very different from using the modified ISREDDE2 panel and
accompanying USRHILIT REXX exec from CBT967 to add highlighting for a heap of
other languages to the ISPF editor. For what it's worth, that modified
ISREDDE2 could be changed to use panel REXX making it completely self-contained!
