HMC show Message IDs in all dialogs

currently creating some documentation / RFE. To show process of work for IBM to reproduce, we copy some dialogs. Some dialogs have a HSCF message ID, others don't.
Would be great to include these message IDs in all dialogs so anyone can reproduce the steps and which message appeared and avoid translation errors.

    As per our mail discussion, there are improvements planned for HMC 950 for FW upgrade. Will wait for more details from you on any other flows where you see a problem with errors not having specific error codes.

    Hi Holger,

    For all error messages, normally there is a code associated even if its not HSCF all the time, it could some other code like HSCL/HSCI etc.. Can you give us more information on specific use cases where you see error codes not being displayed? We will also internally review on the same.

    Thanks.
