I think that's a bad assumption, Joseph. Did you read Lennie's response, where 
he points out that the JCL Reference says "The system ignores the job library 
for
a step that has a STEPLIB DD statement." ?

That means the JOBLIB DD is irrelevant when a STEPLIB DD is present, and if the 
module is not in the STEPLIB then you should get an 806 abend unless the module 
is found in the LPA or linklist.

(And all of this ignores the complexities that I think exist with Tasklibs, and 
multiple levels of tasking with potentially different tasklibs.)
