ACS Run SQL Scripts - change query options

In iNavigator Run SQL Scripts a menu option is provided to alter the query attributes for the job or jobs. This option is not available in ACS Run SQL Scripts.


Use Case:

DB2 estimates a recursive CTE statement will exceed the time limit or storage limit specified in QAQQINI. The only way to run the statement is to set the time limit to *NOMAX. 1.74 seconds later the results are returned.
In iNavigator an option allows changing the time limit for the job or changing to an alternate QAQQINI file.
The only option in ACS Run SQL Scripts is to manually add a CL:CHGQRYA statement at the top of the script. This works but isn't user friendly. And it's not appropriate to change the value in the default QAQQINI file.
