What's an END option?  (Example?)

I need to submit an RCF that the JCL Ref. fails to clarify the effect of
substitutioh's resulting in a name beginning with "&" or "&&" in the
equivalent JCL. as in:
    //   SET V1='&FOO'
    //  SET  V2='&&BAR'
    //*
    //STEP  EXEC PGM=MYPGM
    //DD1  DD  DSN=&V1,...
    //DD2  DD  DSN=&V2,...

I believe that substitution messages can be issued by the Converter but 
disposition
messages only after step execution.

And I find it an irritating omission that substitution messages do not report
substitution of "&" for "&&".
