Perhaps we all should consider a better use of our time than worrying about
inconsequential things such as duplicate jobs being submitted? (8-{]}
I, for one, do not understand what the problem is. (8-{[}

Space in the JESx checkpoint area is also a finite resource even if the job
never runs. Each job submitted requires a small amount of DASD space in the
checkpoint area. Perhaps you should also consider preventing any given user
from submitting an infinite number of valid, authorized, uniquely-named jobs.

I agree that one should control resources. We have written a mechanism to
replace SUBMIT which, based on an authorization scheme, a job runs with
authority other than one's own. And all actions are logged. And noone
has the authority to approve one's own job.
The approval scheme is granular enough that each person has one or more
demographics of "group". Each approver has a list of groups they can
approve.
It has a number of usability features involving symbolic replacement and
running lists of jobs. One can also specify the lpar to run on, but
unfortunately not the plex.
