Add Support For Editing Records Natively in Access Client Solutions (ACS) Using the Schema (db2) Function

When using the new Access Client Solutions (ACS) software, we can view physical file (database) records by using the Schema function and browsing through the respective Libraries and Tables. However, there is currently no support to natively edit those records inside the ACS application.

In the legacy IBM i Access for Windows application, we could edit the records from within the Navigator application by browsing through the Libraries and Tables.

Editing records is typically done in testing and development environments before a new feature is deployed, and many of our developers have expressed the desire to have that functionality again for quick and easy access to modify these records. We would like to request that this functionality be restored to the new ACS.
