Display contents of the save file (SAVF) using RDPi

Is there any way to view the contents of a save file (SAVF) object using RDPi. I know I can run DSPSAVF command from RDPi which will then display the content of that save file in the attached RSE Server green screen session.

Will it not be nice to have some option within RDPi under Remote System view on selecting the save file and then on right click of mouse and having an option ?Display Save File? clicking on it will then show me all the contents of that save file in a new view.

Thanks & Regards
Dibs


Use Case:

Expected Result :

Select a Save File object from RSE
Right Click on the selected object
Chose option for Display Save File Contents
Will popup a new window and display the save file contents

    Thank you for taking the time to submit your request. After careful consideration, we know that we cannot deliver your requested enhancement soon, so it is being declined. However, your request does align with the future strategy of our product and we believe it may have future value, so we will add it to an internal list for us to keep in mind for the future.
