Allow user defined options in Navigator for i

Add the ability for users / ISVs to add options to the Navigator for i Interface


Use Case:

An ISV as an application management module that they wish to add to the Navigator for i Interface so that systems management for the OS and the ISV application can be done through a single management interface.

If you take this to it's logical conclusion you could even allow a user to run their entire application suit in this view.

    The COMMON Europe Advisory Council (CEAC) has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a MEDIUM priority requirement that should be addressed.

    Background: The CEAC members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CEAC has a crucial role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community and has therefore reviewed your RFE.

    To find out how CEAC help to shape the future of IBM i, see CEAC @ ibm.biz/BdYSYj and the article "The Five Hottest IBM i RFEs Of The Quarter" at ibm.biz/BdYSZT

    Just for the record, I would like to mention that this functionality was available in iNav.
