Fine as long as you ensure that the PROTECTED userid is properly defined
with the NOPASSWORD attribute.  Without that attribute adding the TSO
segment would allow logon to TSO using a default password (which is
something like the group name).  Prior to having the TSO segment any logon
attempt would be rejected by TSO unless it was in UADS, so that is your
only potential exposure.
