Add button on 5250 session toolbar

I have seen that in the new ACS Version 1.1.7 you can directly call the IFS Interface in the 5250 Emulation on the toolbar via a button.
Is it possible to add the Link for "Database Schemas" and "SQL Performance Center" in the Navigation as icons? Or a way to add a button to start any of the components on the initial ACS app menu? As you add more, I may like to add more buttons on my toolbar.


Use Case:

Today, I want to get access to the Plan Cache/DBMONs info or the DB Schema/table stats access from the 5250 session for the lpar I am connected to without having to open the whole initial ACS app.
