ACS Run SQL Scripts in separate process/thread

After launching Run SQL Scripts from a 5250 session, running a long query blocks not only the Run SQL Scripts query and result windows, but also the 5250 windows. Ideally this would run in a separate process or thread so that the 5250 sessions (much less the other Run SQL Scripts and results!) are still available.


Use Case:

Ability to perform other work while a long running query executes.
