FWIW, I have written a number of programs that deal with REXX that use IDENTIFY to make additional entry points available to LINKMVS and friends. It works well, with evidently good performance. Certainly a function package could do this en passant as part of its initialization. There are also some replaceable system routines (most not available in the "integrated with TSO/E" REXX environment, unfortunately), and these too can be IDENTIFY'd and then found by REXX.
