Maybe instead of a customer option, use a RACF profile which would allow
finer granularity on who and/or what datasets can be compressed with
DISP=SHR

In general, I'd change "probably" to "definitely". Of course there are
times when it works OK, but the dangers are real.
I've thought of having z/OS provide some customer-specifiable option that
would require DISP=OLD in order to compress a PDS to protect.
Is that of interest? It would default to current behavior (i.e., not
require)
