IBM Power Ideas Portal
This portal is to open public enhancement requests against IBM Power Systems products, including IBM i. To view all of your ideas submitted to IBM, create and manage groups of Ideas, or create an idea explicitly set to be either visible by all (public) or visible only to you and IBM (private), use the IBM Unified Ideas Portal (https://ideas.ibm.com).

This RFE has been re-evaluated. Due to the relatively low number of votes, this RFE is now being declined.
Due to processing by IBM, this request was reassigned to have the following updated attributes:
Brand - Servers and Systems Software
Product family - Programming Languages
Product - Developer for Power Systems
For recording keeping, the previous attributes were:
Brand - Rational
Product family - Design & development
Product - Developer for Power Systems
As you discontinue support for PDM as the IDE product for IBM i and want to convince people to move to RDi, you shouldn't provide arguments to stay in the past. Do surprise your customers, how easy they can manager their menues inside RDi.
Additionally / optionally you add this feature to the new reduced PDM for administration purposes and provide that for free to anybody buying RDi. Then you stay connected to the past for ever.
As you start putting all PASE commands into the same structure of Menu / CMD / F4 / F1 / F2, you will make your community work faster and expand into new areas and might win friends in linux / open source to support that.
This RFE will be under consideration for a future release. Status has been updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
This RFE is consistent with our strategy and product roadmap and IBM is continuing to evaluate.
